Add dependencies to top-level project

[kneth]

Summary of the changes / Why this is an improvement

I am building the driver from current HEAD of master with the command:

./gradlew publishJdbcStandalonePublicationToMavenLocal

All tests pass when running the command

CRATE_URL=https://cdn2.crate.io/downloads/releases/cratedb/x64_mac/crate-5.9.0.tar.gz ./gradlew test

In a simple application, I get the following error:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: io/crate/shade/com/fasterxml/jackson/core/JsonProcessingException

The simple application's build.gradle is:

plugins {
    // Apply the application plugin to add support for building a CLI application in Java.
    id 'application'
}

repositories {
    // Use Maven Central for resolving dependencies.
    mavenCentral()
    mavenLocal()
}

dependencies {
    // Use JUnit Jupiter for testing.
    testImplementation libs.junit.jupiter

    testRuntimeOnly 'org.junit.platform:junit-platform-launcher'

    // This dependency is used by the application.
    implementation libs.guava
    implementation files('../../../Projects/crate-jdbc/build/libs/crate-jdbc-standalone-2.7.0-f2f040a.jar')
}

// Apply a specific Java toolchain to ease working on different environments.
java {
    toolchain {
        languageVersion = JavaLanguageVersion.of(11)
    }
}

application {
    // Define the main class for the application.
    mainClass = 'cratejdbcexperiments.App'
}

tasks.named('test') {
    // Use JUnit Platform for unit tests.
    useJUnitPlatform()
}

and the application is:

package cratejdbcexperiments;

import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.PreparedStatement;
import java.sql.ResultSet;
import java.util.Properties;

public class App {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Properties connectionProps = new Properties();
        connectionProps.put("user", "crate");
        connectionProps.put("tcpKeepAlive", true);

        try {
            System.out.println("Initializing");
            Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:crate://localhost:5432/", connectionProps);
            PreparedStatement stmt = conn.prepareStatement("SELECT * FROM iris");
            System.out.println("Query");
            ResultSet results = stmt.executeQuery();
            long size = 0;
            while (results.next()) {
                size++;
            }
            System.out.println("Length: " + size);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println("Error: " + e.getMessage());
        }
        System.out.println("Done");
    }
}

By adding the dependencies to the top-level build.gradle, the app is able to run.

I cannot reproduce this issue. The crate-jdbc-standalone JAR 2.7.0 released at https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/io/crate/crate-jdbc-standalone/2.7.0/ does contain the mentioned JsonProcessingException.class (and all others of jackson-core).

How did you encounter this issue, could you please add reproducible steps?

@seut I have updated the description to capture all the details. If I use crate-jdbc-standalone 2.7.0, my simple application works fine.
