This PR synchronizes the ErrorProne configuration in Application Insights Java with the upstream OpenTelemetry Java instrumentation repository to ensure consistent code quality standards and take advantage of improvements made upstream.

Key Changes

Enhanced Configuration

  • Added testLatestDeps support for future compatibility with latest dependency testing workflows
  • Improved exclusion paths to include concurrentlinkedhashmap and other vendored code patterns
  • Added comprehensive documentation for each disabled check with detailed explanations

Additional Disabled Checks (synced from OpenTelemetry)

  • PreferredInterfaceType - We often override methods returning Iterable; this makes it tedious for questionable value
  • ImmutableRefactoring - Suggests using com.google.errorprone.annotations.Immutable vs javax.annotation.concurrent.Immutable
  • UnnecessarilyFullyQualified - Fully qualified names may be necessary when deprecating classes
  • Java8ApiChecker - TODO: use animal sniffer instead
  • InitializeInline - Prevents lazy initialization patterns
  • InlineMeSuggester - Triggers even when deprecated methods aren't called
  • DoNotCallSuggester - Can be overly restrictive
  • Nullable checks (FieldMissingNullable, ParameterMissingNullable, etc.) - We have nullaway, don't need errorprone nullable checks with more false positives
  • TypeParameterNaming - Allow UPPERCASE type parameter names
  • MustBeClosedChecker - In bytecode instrumentation it's common to separate across onEnter/onExit
  • MixedMutabilityReturnType - Common to avoid allocation
  • JdkObsolete - We end up using obsolete types if libraries we're instrumenting use them
  • DefaultPackage - We use this pattern in several tests
  • PrivateConstructorForUtilityClass - Was missing explicit disable
  • AvoidObjectArrays - Low-level APIs use arrays
  • BanClassLoader - Needed for agent functionality

Preserved Application Insights Specific Configuration

  • Maintained AI-specific temporary disables: MissingSummary, UnnecessaryDefaultInEnumSwitch
  • Kept JavaDurationGetSecondsToToSeconds disable for Java 9+ features
  • Improved SystemOut handling (always disabled for consistency)

Build Fixes

  • Added missing com.github.ben-manes.versions plugin version to resolve build configuration issues

Testing

  • ✅ Verified ErrorProne is active and catching issues appropriately
  • ✅ Confirmed SystemOut is properly disabled as intended
  • ✅ Validated builds complete successfully across multiple modules
  • ✅ Ensured no regressions in existing functionality

This brings our ErrorProne configuration in line with the upstream OpenTelemetry project while preserving Application Insights-specific requirements.

Fixes #92.

This repository doesn't have custom checks like OpenTelemetry, so I've kept the standard disable for PrivateConstructorForUtilityClass instead of adding non-existent custom checks.
