This PR adds JUnit 6 support to the Java test runner extension, extending the framework to handle the next major version of JUnit Jupiter. The implementation follows the existing JUnit 5 pattern by adding a new TestKind enum value and implementing corresponding searcher and finder classes.
Key Changes:
- Added
JUnit6enum value toTestKindacross TypeScript and Java codebases - Implemented
JUnit6TestSearcherandJUnit6TestFinderclasses for test detection - Updated conditional logic throughout to handle JUnit 6 alongside JUnit 5
- Updated dependencies to include JUnit 6 artifacts (versions 6.0.1) and upgraded JUnit 5 to 5.14.x
- Modified build scripts to support multiple JUnit versions and updated Eclipse platform target

| * to properly detect tests in JUnit 6 projects. | ||

| * <p><b>Why this class exists:</b> Eclipse JDT does not yet have built-in support for JUnit 6. | ||
| * This is a custom implementation that will be needed until Eclipse JDT adds official JUnit 6 support. |

Do we still expect JDT to support JUNIT 6?

yes, there also some issue or PR list for jdtls
- Rename JUnit5TestFinder to reflect its re-use for JUnit 6 eclipse-jdt/eclipse.jdt.ui#2620
- Add JUnit test launch config entry for JUnit 6 eclipse-jdt/eclipse.jdt.ui#2560
I think they should officially support, but currently the junit 6 is still not ready, so I think in java-test, implement such a finder for junit 6.
