Switches distribution from Sonatype Central to Checkmarx's Echo repository, adds Echo repository configuration to pom.xml for dependencies and plugins, and configures Maven mirror authentication in CI/release workflows with ECHO_LIBRARIES_ACCESS_KEY secret. Also adds .vscode to gitignore. * Release 2.3.56 with Jackson 2.22.0 update Update Jackson dependency from 2.21.1 to 2.22.0 and bump CLI version to 2.3.56. Also includes: - Updated CLI binaries for all platforms (Linux, Linux ARM, macOS, Windows) - Fixed Maven mirror ID in CI workflows from 'echo' to 'echo-repo' for proper dependency resolution * Improve Maven echo mirror config in GH workflows Make configuring the Echo Maven mirror more robust in CI and release workflows. In .github/workflows/ci.yml create ~/.m2 and write a complete settings.xml via heredoc (ensures the file exists and injects the echo-repo server/mirror using the ECHO_LIBRARIES_ACCESS_KEY secret). In .github/workflows/release.yml replace the single fragile sed with two targeted sed commands to insert the server and mirrors entries. These changes reduce brittle sed usage and avoid failures when ~/.m2/settings.xml is missing or structured differently. * test: remove PATH_TO_EXECUTABLE guard to enable previously skipped realtime integration tests * Add Zizmor scan and disable checkout credentials Add a new workflow (scan-github-action.yml) to run the Zizmor linter against GitHub Actions (pedantic persona, annotations/offline disabled). Update existing workflows (.github/workflows/checkmarx-one-scan.yml, ci.yml, update-cli.yml) to set actions/checkout persist-credentials: false to avoid leaking GITHUB_TOKEN to third-party actions. * fix: resolve all Zizmor GitHub Actions security findings * fix: restore integration-tests check name and suppress zizmor anonymous-definition --------- Co-authored-by: Atish Jadhav <141334503+cx-atish-jadhav@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: atishj99 <atish.jadhav@checkmarx.com>
