py5 => Java 17

[hx2A]

New Features:

• Update Processing jars to version 4.0b6. This means py5 now supports the new features in that release, including the new commands for controlling the Sketch window such as window_move() and window_title().
• Improvements to py5 to enable packaging with pyinstaller. In the near future I will add documentation to the py5 website explaining how to do this. If you can't wait that long, have a look at this gist for a working example. That example has room for improvement, and will be improved before the documentation is finalized.
• The typehints have been updated to conform to PEP 585. Also, the numpy typing package nptyping has been removed in favor of using the numpy typehint features introduced in versions 1.20 and 1.21. This version of py5 now requires numpy>=1.21, but that shouldn't be a problem for anyone because that version has been out for almost a year now and most likely you have version 1.22 installed already.
• The run_sketch command line tool now accepts command line arguments that will get passed to Processing. Among other things, this will allow the Thonny plugin to set the window position. (see Remember last sketch window position #60)

Bug fixes:

• Fix On OSX, py5_tools.save_frames(), animated_gif(), and capture_frames() trip up the animation thread #58
• Fix Another setup() "hidden settings() disentanglement feature" edge case with global statements #59
• Fix py5_tools.translators bug in translate_code() #63
