Upgrade build to Java 11 with JUnit 5 and add GitHub Actions CI/CD

- Upgrade Java target from 6 to 11 (jDisco remains at Java 6)
- Migrate tests from JUnit 3.8.2 to JUnit 5.10.1 with AssertJ 3.24.2
- Reorganize tests to Maven-style package structure
- Add GitHub Actions workflow for automated build, test, and artifact
deployment
- Update Dockerfile to use Java 11 for build and runtime
- Configure Ivy for JUnit Jupiter API, Engine, and Platform
- Update build.xml with junitlauncher task for JUnit 5 support
- Add CI/CD badge and documentation to CLAUDE.md

+- Packages application JAR
+- Uploads JAR as artifact (90-day retention)
+- Smoke test execution
+- Dependency caching (Maven and Ivy) for faster builds
+
+**Triggers:**
+- Push to `main`, `develop`, `feature/**`, `fix/**` branches
+- Pull requests to `main` and `develop`
+- Manual workflow dispatch
+
+**Build environment:**
+- Ubuntu latest
+- Java 11 (Temurin distribution)
+- 15-minute timeout
+- Concurrency control (cancels outdated builds)
+
+**Performance:**
+- First build (cold cache): ~3-5 minutes
+- Subsequent builds (warm cache): ~30-60 seconds
