This commit also fixes a bug in the loader where the IP field wouldn't always populate as intended, and refactors the DomainInformationService to use significantly fewer SQL queries.
This reduces the impact of restarting the search service, as the site information takes a few minutes to load during which it's not available. It also permits exposing this information via API in the future if there is interest in this.
The assistant service was also modified to do a late load of the suggestions trie, as this is a major contributor to its start-up time.
Finally, some changes were made to the client library, a new get() method was added that takes a TypeToken to allow deserialization of generics such as List<Foo>, and the scheduler was also modified to use virtual threads.
... also move some common configuration into the root build.gradle-file.
Support for JDK21 in lombok is a bit sketchy at the moment, but it seems to work. This upgrade is kind of important as the new index construction really benefits from Arena based lifecycle control over off-heap memory.
This is a system-wide change. The index used to have a lexicon, mapping words to wordIds using a large in-memory hash table. This made index-construction easier, but it
also added a fairly significant RAM penalty to both the index service and the loader.
The new design moves to 64 bit word identifiers calculated using the murmur hash of the keyword, and an index construction based on merging smaller indices.
It also became necessary half-way through to upgrade guice as its error reporting wasn't *quite* compatible with JDK20.
