Upgrading to sbt 1.5 leads to failure to resolve dependency

Upgrading to sbt 1.5 leads to failure to resolve genjavadoc-plugin transitive dependency

Not an issue with the project functionality but attempting to upgrade and feels wrong to not be able to resolve dependencies.

Upgrading to sbt 1.5.5 produces this

Fixing the resolver urls to use https produces this

Have tried a number of things locating this plugin but am stuck.

This might help - I ran into this problem on another project and a community member fixed it here:
erikerlandson/coulomb#201

[SemanticBeeng]

Since the error seems to be caused by a combination of sbt 1.5 and scala 1.12 have tried to reproduce with that branch but unfortunately it does not build for scala 1.12

Also, this project uses GenJavadocPlugin (cause of the dependency error) but coulomb does not. 🤔

PS: Created #18 for visibility
