### Motivation PowerMockito static mocks don't work well with the latest JDK class encapsulation mechanisms. The main problem is that PowerMockito, in order to mock a single static method of a class, try to setAccessible a lot of other apparently related classes. This means, starting from JDK17, you need to add `--add-opens` to the Java runtime options in order to avoid runtime errors. PowerMockito development isn't much active and they don't seem to be ready for the new JDK releases. The best replacement is to use [mockito-inline](https://javadoc.io/doc/org.mockito/mockito-core/latest/org/mockito/Mockito.html#48) (additional part of `mockito-core`), which uses a different algorithm in order to mock static methods - a lot less invasive. ### Changes * Mockito upgrade * Replaced PowerMockito#mockStatic usages with MockedStatic * Added a general purpose helper class with a less verbose API for mocking static class and constructions, based on mockito-inline API * Modified only the 'tools' module -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
