Remove akka dependencies from runtime project

[Akirathan]

runtime project, and thus runtime.jar fat jar, transitively contains akka dependencies, for example from runtime --> downloader --> akka. We should remove akka from downloader and implement the downloading by some simple http component from JDK (or Scala's standard library).

akka is unnecessarily heavy-weight, it comprises of a lot of classes that are loaded just because of few simple HTTP requests.

Tasks

Preview Give feedback

1. Ensure there is are no akka classes in runtime.jar
2. Remove akka from downloader (Remove akka from runtime #8953)
3. Split connected-lock-manager into two projects

Pavel Marek reports a new 🔴 DELAY for today (2024-02-15):

Summary: There is 10 days delay in implementation of the Remove akka dependencies from runtime project (#8222) task.
It will cause 10 days delay for the delivery of this weekly plan.

Will probably have to refactor that PR to use Apache HttpClient instead of pure JDK.

Delay Cause: Issue with native image build on Windows, also, peers don't like the custom usage of JDK

Pavel Marek reports a new STANDUP for today (2024-02-15):

Progress: - native image build of launcher is failing on Windows, but works on Linux.

• Radek cannot reproduce that on his Windows machine.
• Let's increase logging and see what is wrong on the CI.
• Ongoing discussion about using Apache Http rather than pure JDK solution. It should be finished by 2024-02-22.

Pavel Marek reports a new STANDUP for today (2024-02-16):

Progress: - Still cannot figure out the native image build failure on Windows.

• Capturing output from the native image build, increasing verbosity, restarting the job... It should be finished by 2024-02-22.

Pavel Marek reports a new STANDUP for today (2024-02-19):

Progress: - The build failure on the Windows was caused by the cmd line being too long.

• Fixed by adding arguments to native-image via an argument file.
• Finally merged. It should be finished by 2024-02-22.
