Add Kotlin language #1096

Closed lfoppiano closed 6 months ago

This PR enable Kotlin in the Grobid build. #992

Kotlin is a fully JVM compatible language that allow to write code in a more efficient way. It's a compiled language that integrate seamlessly in the Java JVM machine.

We have successfully used Kotlin in Grobid-quantities since version 0.7.3 for both tests and new code.

The approach so far is to gradually move to Kotlin only for new code, in particular it fits well for writing JUnit and integration tests.

In this PR, beside enabling Kotlin I added a small test to validate that it's working.
