Dependency version updates for 21.7

[labkey-susanh]

Rationale

Keeping dependency versions updated. We also take this opportunity to transition the module that is being updated to use the new BuildUtils.addExternalDependency method that provides the information to be used in populating the jars.txt file so we can remove it from and ignore it in git.

@labkey-susanh Does this mean no more manually maintaining jars.txt?

[labkey-susanh]

@bbimber Yes, the new utility method gets rid of the need to do that by merging the data from the jars.txt into the build.gradle file, but I've not updated all the build.gradle files to use it, only the ones that have been touched by the dependency updates going on in platform at the moment. You have to convert all external dependencies to use this or none of them, can't have a mixture of both.
