Provide a build convention plugin for command line tools, and use
`libs.versions.toml` for command line tool dependencies. Adjust the
individual tool `build.gradle.kts` files accordingly.
Remove unnecessary `gradle.properties` and `settings.gradle` files for
projects that are included as subprojects, not included builds.
Add a trivial test for each command line tool so there are tests to run
and provide some confidence that automated library upgrades don't break
command line tool compilation.
Moshi is faster to decode JSON at runtime, is actively maintained, has a
smaller memory and method footprint, and a slightly smaller APK size.
Moshi also correctly creates default constructor arguments instead of
leaving them null, which was a source of `NullPointerExceptions` when
using Gson.
The conversion broadly consisted of:
- Adding `@JsonClass(generateAdapter = true)` to data classes that
marshall to/from JSON.
- Replacing `@SerializedName(value = ...)` with `@Json(name = ...)`.
- Replacing Gson instances with Moshi in Retrofit, Hilt, and tests.
- Using Moshi adapters to marshall to/from JSON instead of Gson `toJson`
/ `fromJson`.
- Deleting `Rfc3339DateJsonAdapter` and related code, and using the
equivalent adapter bundled with Moshi.
- Rewriting `GuardedBooleanAdapter` as a more generic `GuardedAdapter`.
- Deleting unused ProGuard rules; Moshi generates adapters using code
generation, not runtime reflection.
The conversion surfaced some bugs which have been fixed.
- Not all audio attachments have attachment size metadata. Don't show
the attachment preview if the metadata is missing.
- Some `throwable` were not being logged correctly.
- The wrong type was being used when parsing the response when sending a
scheduled status.
- Exceptions other than `HttpException` or `IoException` would also
cause a status to be resent. If there's a JSON error parsing a response
the status would be repeatedly sent.
- In tests strings containing error responses were not valid JSON.
- Workaround Mastodon a bug and ensure `filter.keywords` is populated,

Previous code could return an error on Friendica version strings like
`2024.03-dev-1547`.
Fix this:
- Extend the list of explicitly supported servers to include Fedibird,
Friendica, Glitch, Hometown, Iceshrimp, Pixelfed, and Sharkey.
- Add version parsing routines for these servers.
- Test the version parsing routines fetching every server and version
seen by Fediverse Observer (~ 2,000 servers) and ensuring that the
server and version information can be parsed.
Improve the error message:
- Show the hostname with a `ServerRepository` error
Clean up the code:
- Remove the custom `resultOf` and `mapResult` functions, they have
equivalents in newer versions of the library (like `runSuspendCatching`)
