Context

JBang does not support provided scope for dependencies (jbangdev/jbang#1749). This means --class-path entries passed to jbang export fatjar get bundled into the output JAR, causing a 592MB fat JAR with classloader conflicts (see #1876).

Current Workaround

JBangRunner.stripClasspathEntries() post-processes the fat JAR after export, removing all entries that came from the --class-path JARs while keeping UDF classes, META-INF/, and //DEPS dependencies.

Action

When jbangdev/jbang#1749 is resolved and JBang supports provided scope:

1. Update JBangRunner.exportFatJar() to use the provided scope mechanism instead of --class-path
2. Remove stripClasspathEntries() and collectJarEntryNames()
3. Remove the related unit tests in JBangRunnerTest
