BuildInfoExtractorUtils#searchAdditionalPropertiesFile(...) fails with "Malformed \uxxxx encoding "

[rzo1]

Describe the bug

As reported in https://github.com/jfrog/jenkins-artifactory-plugin/issues/913, the BuildInfoExtractorUtils might fail due to "Malformed \uxxxx encoding " in some rare occasions.

To Reproduce We didn't manage to reproduce it, because it is merly impossible to debug which file is causing it in a production environment running Jenkins CI

Expected behavior The extractor shouldn't hard fail here. Maybe we can (silently?) ignore the exception or catch it accordingly as proposed in https://github.com/jfrog/jenkins-artifactory-plugin/issues/913#issuecomment-2193934002.

Versions

• Extractor version: 2.41.21
• Operating system: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Server
• Artifactory Version: cf. https://github.com/jfrog/jenkins-artifactory-plugin/issues/913,

Additional context Add any other context about the problem here.

Wonder, if we can add a

for now, so it becomes more evident in https://github.com/jfrog/jenkins-artifactory-plugin/issues/913 which file actually causes this behaviour. Wdyt?
