Guava dependancy conflict

[dwilliams-gs]

Description of issue

When upgrading our version of selenium-java to 4.1.2 we see the following issue due to a conflict in the dependancy version of Guava used within the dependancy.

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.google.common.collect.ImmutableMap.of(Ljava/lang/Object;Ljava/lang/Object;Ljava/lang/Object;Ljava/lang/Object;Ljava/lang/Object;Ljava/lang/Object;Ljava/lang/Object;Ljava/lang/Object;Ljava/lang/Object;Ljava/lang/Object;Ljava/lang/Object;Ljava/lang/Object;)Lcom/google/common/collect/ImmutableMap;

Interim fix

Adding an exclusion onto the dependancy within the pom.xml

        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.github.automatedowl</groupId>
            <artifactId>allure-environment-writer</artifactId>
            <version>1.0.0</version>
            <exclusions>
                <exclusion>
                    <groupId>com.google.guava</groupId>
                    <artifactId>guava</artifactId>
                </exclusion>
            </exclusions>
        </dependency>

Fix

• Bump the version of Guava for the dependancy from 29.0-jre -> 31.0.1-jre
• Remove the need for the Guava dependancy
