## Issue
<!-- Update with the real issue number once the issue above is filed -->
Closes#5506
## Change
`CassandraEmbeddingStore` builds its backing `MetadataVectorTable` with
the configured `CassandraSimilarityMetric` (COSINE, DOT_PRODUCT, or
EUCLIDEAN), exposed via `Builder.metric(...)` and
`BuilderAstra.metric(...)`.
But both `findRelevant(...)` overloads (reached by `search(...)`)
hardcoded `.metric(CassandraSimilarityMetric.COSINE)` on the `AnnQuery`.
A store configured with EUCLIDEAN or DOT_PRODUCT was therefore queried
with the COSINE CQL similarity function, returning wrong top-K results
on a normal call path with valid input.
This PR replaces the hardcoded COSINE with
`.metric(embeddingTable.getSimilarityMetric())` in both overloads, so
search honors the configured metric. The COSINE default path is
unchanged (backward compatible).
Scope: this PR fixes only the metric passed to the query. The
EUCLIDEAN/DOT_PRODUCT relevance-score mapping
(`RelevanceScore.fromCosineSimilarity`) is a separate design question,
left to a follow-up.
Tests: added `CassandraEmbeddingStoreTest` (Mockito `ArgumentCaptor`, no
Docker/API key). It captures the `AnnQuery` passed to `similaritySearch`
and asserts the metric matches the configured one for both overloads,
plus a COSINE-default case. Verified fail-then-pass: the EUCLIDEAN
assertions fail against the pre-fix code and pass after the fix.
Note: `CassandraEmbeddingStore.java` predates the palantir-java-format
ratchet, so `spotless:apply` reformatted the whole touched file (import
ordering, line wrapping) as CI requires. Functional change is the two
`.metric(...)` lines.

## Summary
Removed 18 unused import statements from 17 source files across multiple
modules.
### Modules affected
- `langchain4j-core` (6 files)
- `langchain4j` (3 files)
- `langchain4j-azure-ai-search`
- `langchain4j-cassandra`
- `langchain4j-couchbase`
- `langchain4j-agentic`
- `langchain4j-agentic-mcp`

### Summary
Refactored the `addAll` method in `CassandraEmbeddingStore` to improve
validation and ensure robustness.
### Changes
- Added null check for `ids` list.
- Enforced size validation: `ids`, `embeddingList`, and
`textSegmentList` must all have the same size.
- Improved error messages for better clarity during debugging.
- Removed unused logger object
### Why
Previously, the method validated only `embeddingList` and
`textSegmentList`. If `ids` was null or mismatched in size, it could
lead to unexpected runtime errors (e.g., IndexOutOfBoundsException).
This change makes the method more predictable and safer for bulk
inserts.
### Impact
- No changes to external behavior unless invalid inputs are passed.
- Prevents silent runtime failures by failing fast with descriptive
exceptions.

## Issue
<!-- Please specify the ID of the issue this PR is addressing. For
example: "Closes #1234" or "Fixes #1234" -->
Fixes#1636 (Probably fully as I removed Lombok from wherever it was
remaining).
## Change
<!-- Please describe the changes you made. -->
- Removed Lombok annotations and replaced with standard Java checks for
ex. `Objects.requireNonNull` or equivalent implementation.
- Removed dependency from pom.xml as well, as there is no Lombok
annotation remaining in code.

## Issue
Cleanup repeating dependencies in pom.xml. Better test assertions and
apidocs/javadoc generation.
## Change
Refactor project structure and remove unused test dependencies.
- Repeating test dependencies like `tinylog`, `awaitility` and others
were removed from various modules and consolidated in the parent module.
This reduction in clutter helps to streamline the testing process.
- A separate `kotlin` profile was created to manage Kotlin-related
configurations and dependencies.
- Upgraded versions of dependencies like `ai-mocks` and `wiremock` were
implemented. Moved to wiremock-standalone (shaded jar) to avoid
potential version conflicts with runtime classes.
- The test changes in `ChatRequestExtensionsTest.kt` partially migrated
from AssertJ to Kotest assertions.
- Updated Dokka plugin configuration

## Change
This pull request includes the following changes to improve project
dependency management:
- Removed unnecessary and redundant Netty dependencies and exclusions.
- Updated and reorganized dependency versions for consistency, including
new BOM imports for Azure SDK, Netty, and Reactor.
- Eliminated AWS SDK v1 dependencies, transitioning to
`software.amazon.awssdk` BOM for better compatibility and reduced
clutter.
- Removed redundant test dependencies like `assertj-core` and `mockito`
across modules, referring to the parent POM.
- Adjusted `kotlinx-coroutines-test` to use JVM-specific artifact and
standardized dependency version variables.
- Refined POM XML formatting for consistency and clarity (`mvn
spotless:apply`)
