Description
In order to be able to use text blocks and other new Java language features, we should upgrade to a recent version of Checkstyle.
The latest version of spring-javaformat-checkstyle (0.0.28) is built against Checkstyle 8.32 which does not include support for language features such as text blocks. Support for text blocks was added in Checkstyle 8.36.
In addition, there is a binary compatibility issue between spring-javaformat-checkstyle 0.0.28 and Checkstyle 8.42.
Thus we cannot use Checkstyle 8.45.1.
We therefore need to upgrade to spring-javaformat-checkstyle 0.0.28 and downgrade to Checkstyle 8.41.
This change will be applied to 5.3.x as well as main in order to benefit from the enhanced checking provided in more recent versions of Checkstyle.
