fix(deps): Align versions of transitive dependencies with Grails specified versions (#13860)

Ensure consistent versions of `spring-core`, `spring-jcl`, `spring-orm`, `snakeyaml`, `tomcat-jdbc` and `tomcat-jul` across all transitive dependencies. This resolves potential version conflicts caused by different versions being pulled in by other dependencies.

Closes #13856
