Replace deprecated SonarQube logger with SLF4J

[sonarqube-agent]

This PR was automatically created by the Remediation Agent's Scheduled backlog remediation feature.

Why these issues? These issues target deprecated API usage (S1874 rule) in production source code with MINOR severity and clear, actionable fixes. The changes are focused on core plugin files and have high automation success rates, making them ideal candidates for automated remediation.

This change replaces deprecated logging API usage across three files in the Flex plugin by importing and using SLF4J Logger and LoggerFactory instead of the obsolete SonarQube logging classes. Modernizing to SLF4J ensures compatibility with current SonarQube versions and eliminates deprecation warnings.

Fixed Issues

java:S1874 - Remove this use of "Logger"; it is deprecated. • MINOR • View issue

Location: sonar-flex-plugin/src/main/java/org/sonar/plugins/flex/FlexSquidSensor.java:65

Why is this an issue?

Code is sometimes annotated as deprecated by developers maintaining libraries or APIs to indicate that the method, class, or other programming element is no longer recommended for use. This is typically due to the introduction of a newer or more effective alternative. For example, when a better solution has been identified, or when the existing code presents potential errors or security risks.

What changed

Adds the new non-deprecated imports for org.slf4j.Logger and org.slf4j.LoggerFactory, which replace the deprecated org.sonar.api.utils.log.Logger and org.sonar.api.utils.log.Loggers classes. This is necessary to support the replacement of the deprecated logger usage on line 65.

Adds the import statements for org.slf4j.Logger and org.slf4j.LoggerFactory, which are the non-deprecated replacements for the deprecated org.sonar.api.utils.log.Logger and org.sonar.api.utils.log.Loggers. This supports the migration away from the deprecated SonarQube logging API.
