Kotlinx.benchmark project just abandoned bintray and moving to maven central,
removing the artifacts from bintray and causing missing dependencies in our build.
So we are updating the dependency to point to the new version on maven central.
More information in:
53ee45d0d9 (diff-b335630551682c19a781afebcf4d07bf978fb1f8ac04c6bf87428ed5106870f5)
on the current Java Implementation.
The code dependencies related to JVM were removed and the project is able to target all available platforms.
The only requirement to implement to fully support a target is to implement functions described in `ByteArray.kt`.
Right now the code support JVM and native targets. JS port still missing, but just be trivial to introduce.
Currently, only the `jvm` and `macosX64` targets are enabled until we figure out how to enable tests on all
platforms on CI.
A submodule called "benchmark" is also introduced. It contains a series
of benchmarks comparing Java and Kotlin implementations of FlexBuffers and the UTF8 API.
Finally, this commit does not contain the scripts necessary to publish the artifacts. This will
be introduced at a later stage once the team has an agreement on how to rollout Kotlin releases.
