Remove Newtonsoft.Json dependency from JsonPatch

[EasyLOB]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe the problem.

I just moved to .NET 8.0, removed Newtonsoft.Json dependency and moved to System.Text.Json.
BUT, when I create an API PATCH method with JsonPatch ( refer to link below ) I have to install Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.NewtonsoftJson:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/web-api/jsonpatch?view=aspnetcore-8.0

Describe the solution you'd like

Any plans to remove Newtonsoft.Json dependency from JsonPatch and adopt System.Text.Json?

Dupe of #24333

@davidfowl what was the reason for reopening this issue rather than keeping it closed as a dupe of #24333?

@stevendarby, @chenzuo I see you guys have not liked the previous comment about closing this as a dupe. What was the reason? Because removing Newtonsoft.Json dependency will be in favor of the framework-provided System.Text.Json instead, which is exactly what the other issue is tracking.

@mkArtakMSFT I wasn't pleased that MS are recommending other libraries instead of updating their own (see also my post on the linked issue.)

@mkArtakMSFT I think reopend it because it was closed as completed. We can close this as a dupe now
