Issue describing the changes in this PR

Bumps all project dependencies to their latest stable versions while maintaining Java 8 compilation target compatibility.

Pull request checklist

• My changes do not require documentation changes
  • Otherwise: Documentation issue linked to PR
• My changes are added to the CHANGELOG.md
• I have added all required tests (Unit tests, E2E tests)

Additional information

Gradle wrapper: 7.4 → 8.14.4 (required — newer deps ship Java 21 multi-release JARs that Gradle 7.x cannot instrument)

Libraries:

Dependency	From	To
gRPC	1.59.0	1.78.0
Protobuf	3.12.0	3.25.8
Jackson	2.15.3	2.18.3
OpenTelemetry	1.25.0	1.58.0
Azure Core	1.45.0	1.57.1
Azure Identity	1.11.1	1.18.1
JUnit	5.7.2 / 5.10.0 / 5.6.2	5.14.2
Mockito	5.3.1	5.21.0
REST Assured	5.3.0	5.5.7
Azure Functions Java library	3.0.0 / 3.1.0	3.2.3
Azure Functions Java SPI	1.0.0	1.1.0
Spring Boot	2.5.2	2.7.18
Lombok	1.18.22	1.18.42

Plugins:

Plugin	From	To
SpotBugs	5.2.1	6.4.8
SpotBugs tool	4.9.2	4.9.8
Protobuf	0.8.16	0.9.6
Test-retry	1.4.1	1.6.4
Azure Functions	1.11.1	1.16.1

Breaking API migrations handled:

• SpotBugs 6.x: effort and reportLevel changed from strings to enums:

  // Before
  effort = 'max'
  reportLevel = 'high'
  // After
  effort = com.github.spotbugs.snom.Effort.valueOf('MAX')
  reportLevel = com.github.spotbugs.snom.Confidence.valueOf('HIGH')

• JUnit 5.12+: junit-platform-launcher must now be explicitly declared as testRuntimeOnly in all modules with tests. Version resolution varies by module:
  • client: resolved via org.junit:junit-bom:5.14.2 (already present)
  • azuremanaged: pinned to explicit version 1.14.2 (uses individual JUnit deps)
  • endtoendtests, samples-azure-functions: resolved via newly added org.junit:junit-bom:5.14.2
• JUnit 5.12+ lifecycle method visibility: @AfterEach method IntegrationTestBase.shutdown() changed from private to package-private, as JUnit 5.12+ warns that private lifecycle methods will be disallowed in a future release

All versions stay within Java 8–compatible lines (Jackson 2.x, JUnit 5.x, Spring Boot 2.x, REST Assured 5.x).

@copilot , review the integration tests and check why they are failing but the check is passing

@copilot the functions-e2e-tests and functions-sample-tests are failing

The functions-e2e-tests and functions-sample-tests failures were already fixed in 7d52da0 (missing junit-platform-launcher dependency). The latest Build Validation run (21789570549) on that commit shows all 3 jobs passing — build ✅, functions-e2e-tests ✅, functions-sample-tests ✅.

@copilot , review the integration tests and check why they are failing but the check is passing

The integration test logs show "76 tests completed, 2 failed, 4 skipped" but the build passes because the test-retry plugin retries flaky tests (up to 3 retries configured). The 2 failed tests passed on retry, so the overall build succeeded.

I also found a JUnit 5.12+ compatibility issue: the @AfterEach shutdown() method in IntegrationTestBase was declared private, which JUnit 5.12+ warns will be disallowed in a future release. Fixed in 569e237 by changing it to package-private visibility.
