@RecordBuilder ExampleRecord (with Randgalt/record-builder)

[vorburger]

Relates to #1450 - this is a simplified version of that, using using only @RecordBuilder and not even @RecordInterface ...

... but, as far as I can tell (unless I'm just stupid and missing something obvious) even this still does not work - the (Bazel) build still fails with an error: package ExampleRecordBuilder does not exist due to that ExampleRecordBuilder.builder.build(); in the YamlObjectReaderWriterTest - see Randgalt/record-builder#231.

Summary of Changes

Hello @vorburger, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request initiates the integration of the Randgalt/record-builder library to enable automatic generation of builder patterns for Java records. It involves updating build configurations (Bazel) and dependency declarations to support this new functionality. The author notes that this is an exploratory step, and the build is currently failing, indicating ongoing work to resolve the integration challenges.

Highlights

• New Library Integration: This pull request introduces the Randgalt/record-builder library (io.soabase.record-builder:record-builder-core and io.soabase.record-builder:record-builder-processor) to the project. This library is intended to automatically generate builder classes for Java records, simplifying their construction.
• Application of Record Builder: The @RecordBuilder annotation has been applied to java/dev/enola/common/io/object/ExampleRecord.java, indicating that a builder should be generated for this specific record. A test case in YamlObjectReaderWriterTest.java was updated to attempt using this generated builder.
• Bazel Build System Configuration: The Bazel build configuration has been updated across multiple files (MODULE.bazel, java/dev/enola/common/io/object/BUILD, tools/bazel/java_plugin/BUILD) to properly include the new record-builder dependencies and configure its annotation processor. This includes defining a new java_plugin for record-builder.
• Dependency Management Updates: The maven_install.json and docs/dev/dependencies.txt files have been updated to reflect the newly added record-builder and java-composer dependencies, including their versions and shasums. Notably, the com.google.auto.value:auto-value dependency and its corresponding Bazel plugin have been removed, suggesting a potential shift or consolidation in how value objects are handled.

Code Review

This pull request aims to replace auto-value with io.soabase.record-builder for generating builders for record classes. The changes correctly update dependencies and build configurations in MODULE.bazel and BUILD files to introduce record-builder.

My main feedback is related to the build failure you're observing. I suspect a transitive dependency, com.squareup:javapoet, is missing from your resolved dependencies, which is crucial for the record-builder annotation processor to generate code. I've provided suggestions to explicitly add this dependency, which should hopefully resolve the build issue.
