Upgrade Kotlin and related dependencies #407

Closed pradeepblue closed 1 year ago

What problem does this solve? We generally want to be conservative with kotlin version updates to make it more flexible for consumers.

How badly does it affect consumer flexibility as it should be compatible for them if minimum version was set 1.5.30 earlier (4-5 months back)? Or, is the concern that other contributors might add code using some newer features? 1.6.10 is stable and has improved optimizations (https://kotlinlang.org/docs/whatsnew16.html) that could be beneficial for the plugins used (gradle, dokka). If you still feel it is not yet ready for upgrade, I am ok with shelving it for few more months.
