Changes with compatibility implications

• ++ is stricter. See below.
• Drops OkHttp 3.x dependency lm#399 by @eed3si9n
• Updates to Scala 2.12.16
• Moves domain socket location to XDG_RUNTIME_DIR and /tmp #6887 by @AlonsoM45
• Deprecates Resolver.sonatypeRepo and adds Resolver.sonatypeOssRepos, which includes https://s01.oss.sonatype.org/ by @armanbilge in lm#393

++ command updates

Prior to sbt 1.7 ++ <sv> <command1> filtered subprojects using crossScalaVersions having the same ABI suffix as <sv>. This behavior was generally not well understood, and also created incorrect result for Scala 3.x since ++ 3.0.1 test could downgrade subproject that may require 3.1 or above.

sbt 1.7.0 fixes this by requiring ++ <sv> <command1> so <sv> part can be given as a semantic version selector expression, such as 3.1.x or 2.13.x. Note that the expression may match at most one Scala version to switch into. In sbt 1.7.0, a concrete version such as ++ 3.0.1 equires exact version to be present in crossScalaVersion.

This contribution was a collaborated effort among Arnout Engelen #6894, Rui Gonçalves lm#400, and Eugene Yokota.

Scala 3 compiler error improvements

In zinc#1082, Toshiyuki Takahashi contributed a fix to ignore Problem#rendered passed from the compiler when sbt uses position mapper to transform the position. This is aimed at fixing the error reporting for Play on Scala 3.

In #6874, Chris Kipp extended xsbti.Problem to track richer information available in Scala 3. This is aimed at enhancing the compilation errors reported to BSP client such as Metals.
