Code Review

This pull request cleans up protobuf dependencies by commenting out protobuf-java and protobuf-kotlin from the version catalog. My review suggests that instead of commenting out these unused dependencies, they should be removed completely for better code hygiene. This aligns with the goal of cleaning up dependencies and improves the maintainability of the libs.versions.toml file.
