Subject: [PATCH] deps: bump testng, cucumber, surefire-testng in lockstep
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- testng 7.9.0 -> 7.12.0 (as proposed in #92, verified green)
- cucumber-java 7.34.8 -> 8.0.3, cucumber-testng 7.20.1 -> 8.0.3
  (not 8.0.1 as #93 proposed: 8.0.1's own transitive deps conflict —
  cucumber-core pins io.cucumber:messages:34.2.1 while several of its
  other transitives require messages in the 32.x/33.x range, so 8.0.1
  can't even resolve. 8.0.3 resolves cleanly. Bumped cucumber-testng
  alongside it since the pom comment requires matching versions.)
- maven-surefire-plugin 3.2.5 -> 3.5.6, surefire-testng 3.2.5 -> 3.5.6
  (not 3.6.0 as #90 proposed: the surefire-testng provider was never
  published at 3.6.0, only the plugin was, so #90 fails to resolve.
  3.5.6 is the latest version published for both.)

547 tests green on `mvn clean verify`.
