Gradle 8 upgrade

[themockgraeme]

I forked the Laimiux Gradle 8 compatible branch of the Vanniktech Jacoco plugin and made the following changes:

• Removed the Laimiux publishing calls, which are specific to their system.
• Upgraded the included APIs to the latest versions and made minor code changes to accommodate these.
• Changed the Java / JDK version to 17, for compatibility with Gradle 8.
• Upgraded the Gradle version to 8.

Thanks for the PR. Unfortunately, I don't have time for this project anymore. I also don't use it any more. Would you be willing to take care of this project? If so, I can transfer it to your Github handle.

Hi Niklas, I don’t use the project either. I’ve got to update a piece of code written by another contractor (who is no longer working where I am) who used it last year. Nor do I have time to take it on. Would it be possible to push the update to the snapshot branch, and if it works create a version 0.17? It looks as though you’ve got Azure tasks for that, so it should be straightforward. Thanks, Graeme From: Niklas BaudySent: Monday, 1 May 2023 5:22 PMTo: vanniktech/gradle-android-junit-jacoco-pluginCc: Graeme Sutherland; AuthorSubject: Re: [vanniktech/gradle-android-junit-jacoco-plugin] Gradle 8 upgrade (PR #219) Thanks for the PR.
