Updates all seven modules to the current, published sdk-java and libraries. Adds compile-only CI and Dependabot.

Versions

• sdk-java: 5.5.0 from JitPack in every module. Before, the modules were on 4.5.1 to 5.1.1, and 5.1.1 returns 404 on JitPack. 5.x start/stop/track throw InterruptedException, and the tests now declare it.
• Java: 17 (maven.compiler.release / options.release). Selenide 7 and JUnit 6 need it.
• Libraries:
  • Selenium 3.141 → 4.52. Selenium Manager finds the driver, so WebDriverManager is gone.
  • Playwright 0.170 → 1.64. The separate driver-bundle is gone.
  • Selenide 5 → 7.19.
  • JUnit 5.6 → 6.1 (allure module); JUnit 4.12 → 4.13.2 (Maven modules).
  • TestNG 6 → 7.12.
  • Appium java-client 7 → 11: AppiumBy, XCUITestOptions, Duration waits.
  • JDI Light 1.3 → 1.6: the package moved from com.epam.jdi.tools to com.jdiai.tools, and TestNG 7 has no getRetryAnalyzer().
  • PDFBox 2 → 3 (Loader.loadPDF).
  • Allure gradle plugin 2.8 → 4.3.
• Gradle: 6.1/6.5 → 9.8.2 wrappers. selenide-gradle failed to configure because the compile configuration no longer exists.

Fixes

• Demo site: automationpractice.com is gone. The browser examples now use https://the-internet.herokuapp.com and run headless.
• CompareFromFile: String.valueOf(status) was compared with "autoApproved". That never matched (the value is AUTO_APPROVED), so auto-approved images counted as failures. The status is now compared as the TestRunStatus enum.
• Test discovery: surefire only picks up *Test classes, so mvn test silently ran nothing in selenium-maven and playwright. The classes are now SeleniumExampleTest and PlaywrightExampleTest.
• Configs: all examples use the defaults of a fresh install: http://localhost:4200, DEFAULTUSERAPIKEYTOBECHANGED, Default project. The API keys and project ids of old installs are removed.

CI and Dependabot

• CI: each module compiles its tests (mvn test-compile / ./gradlew testClasses). CI compiles only, because the examples need a browser, a VRT server and, for appium, an iOS simulator.
• Dependabot: Maven (5 dirs), Gradle (2 dirs) and github-actions, with minor/patch, major and security groups.

Verified

• All seven modules compile.
• selenium-maven, playwright and selenide-gradle ran locally against a throwaway VRT api:6.0.0-rc1 stack: tests passed, and the test runs and stopped builds are visible on the server.
• jdi-light and appium were only compiled; they need the JDI demo login and an iOS simulator.

Closes the Dependabot PRs #24, #23 and #16 (TestNG and commons-io are now past their targets).
