The GSON upgrade slightly changed an error string, so the test was
updated to be less of a change detector.
Some OpenTelemetry dependencies are alpha versions, so needed an
adjustment in build.gradle to accept the versions. Similarly, Undertow
includes Final in its version numbers which needs to be accepted.
TlsTesting.loadCert() is a public API and so should be preferred over
our internal utility. It avoids creating a temp file that has to be
deleted by a shutdown hook. Usages that needed a file were not migrated.
Trying to upgrade Gradle to 7.6 improved the checkstyle plugin such that
it appears to have been running in new occasions. That in turn exposed
us to https://github.com/checkstyle/checkstyle/issues/5088. That bug was
fixed in 8.28, which also fixed lots of other bugs. So now we have
better checking and some existing volations needed fixing. Since the
code style fixes generated a lot of noise, this is a pre-fix to reduce
the size of a Gradle upgrade.
I did not upgrade past 8.28 because at some point some other bugs were
introduced, in particular with the Indentation module. I chose the
oldest version that had the particular bug impacting me fixed. Upgrading
to this old-but-newer version still makes it easier to upgrade to a
newer version in the future.
