This PR updates everything for 2027. This includes removing GradleRIO, simplifying our wpilib version defintion, updating APIs, updating to Java 21, and more.
Note that photonlibpy is failing because robotpy has not been fully updated yet. Examples are omitted because they need to be updated for our new PhotonPoseEstimator API and still need some changes from WPILIB. photonlib windows build is failing because we're waiting for some upstream changes. Finally, images are failing since they don't have Java 21 yet.
## Description
Find-and-replace 2026.1.1 -> 2026.2.1. This gets us 2026 field layouts

things](https://github.com/wpilibsuite/allwpilib/releases/tag/v2026.2.1)
<!-- What changed? Why? (the code + comments should speak for itself on
the "how") -->
<!-- Fun screenshots or a cool video or something are super helpful as
well. If this touches platform-specific behavior, this is where test
evidence should be collected. -->

exchange, the frontend typing is updated

Bump to wpilib 2026 beta. This does not bump our pythonlib, as robotpy
hasn't come out yet.

Occasionally, the sim projects are capable of simulating current draw of
over 600A, which triggers a condition in
`BatterySim::calculateDefaultBatteryLoadedVoltage` that limits the
minimum measured battery voltage to 0V (to prevent it from going
negative).
When battery voltage measures 0, this causes NaN values to propagate
through the drivetrain model, making sim inoperable. Specifically, [this
is the
line](https://github.com/PhotonVision/photonvision/blob/master/photonlib-java-examples/aimandrange/src/main/java/frc/robot/subsystems/drivetrain/SwerveDriveSim.java#L452)
that causes the initial NaN values in simulation.
This PR is posed as a patch to ensure that simulation doesn't break.
Fixes#1564. Also copies vendordep JSONs to the examples as advised by
Thad. Removes unused shared/javacpp/setupBuild.gradle. Also removes
unnecessary `chmod +x gradlew` from CI workflows.
