Backport of #48849. Update `.editorconfig` to make the Java settings the
default for all files, and then apply a 2-space indent to all `*.gradle`
files. Then reformat all the files.
hamcrest has some improvements in newer versions, like FileMatchers
that make assertions regarding file exists cleaner. This commit upgrades
to the latest version of hamcrest so we can start using new and improved
matchers.
* Testing conventions now checks for tests in main
This is the last outstanding feature of the old NamingConventionsTask,
so time to remove it.
* PR review
The java version checker requires being written with java 7 APIs.
In order to use java 8 apis in other launcher utilities, this commit
moves the java version checker back to its own jar.
We no longer need animal sniffer because we use JDK functionality
(introduced in JDK 9) to target older versions of the JDK for
compilation. This functionality means that the JDK handles the problem
of ensuring that we do not use JDK APIs from the version that we are
compiling from that are not available in the version that we are
compiling to. A previous commit removed this for the REST client (where
we target JDK 7) but a few traces were left behind.
JDK 9 has removed JVM options that were valid in JDK 8 (e.g., GC logging
flags) and replaced them with new flags that are not available in JDK
8. This means that a single JVM options file can no longer apply to JDK
8 and JDK 9, complicating development, complicating our packaging story,
and complicating operations. This commit extends the JVM options syntax
to specify the range of versions the option applies to. If the running
JVM matches the range of versions, the flag will be used to start the
JVM otherwise the flag will be ignored.
We implement this parser in Java for simplicity, and with this we start
our first step towards a Java launcher.
