Switch to scala 3 + java 17

[johanneshiry]

Scala 3 has several improvements over the currently used scala version. Even more, in the mid-term I expect that we will run into several problems if we stick to scala 2.

We may consider using this version change to also switch to the latest java LTS which is currently java 17.

For a full switch, we depend on updates of the following tools to support scala 3

• Scoverage
• Scapegoat

We should also consider using this change for a new, actually the first public, release.
Therefore it might make sense to solve #17 before.

JDK has been upgraded to version 17 now in #60

scoverage has been updated ✔️

Now, gradle-scoverage supports scoverage 2 (and thus Scala 3) as well: scoverage/gradle-scoverage#192

For the Scapegoat requirement, feel free to checkout my repo, I have been working on a port of Scapegoat to Scala 3 and currently have a working and tested version with 70 rules.
I hope this helps you switch your project to Scala 3 :)

@t1b00 thanks for the hint, we'll consider your repo when we discuss a switch to Scala 3 again
