Ticket was cloned from Red Hat Bugzilla (product Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8): Bug 1937856

Description of problem:
IPA provides two RPC protocols: XML-RPC and JSON.
With 8.4.0 the only IPA-provided tool, ipa-join, will use the XML-RPC service.
It has had the capability to use JSON since the upstream 4.9.0 release and has been in use in Fedora with no issues for half a year.
To enable JSON we need to replace 
%bcond_without ipa_join_xml
with
%bcond_with ipa_join_xml
We should also be able to drop the build and runtime dependency on xmlrpc-c.
This will not change the RPC protocols available to the server. It will only affect the protocols we utilize internally.

This is already done upstream. Marking as fixed.
