Fix complexity, cognitive_complexity, ncloc metrics from project-level metrics (sum of all files) to file-level metrics (max of all files).
Tested with Sonarqube server version: 10.7.0.96327
Added Dockerfile for convinience.
Updated pom.xml version to 5.0.3
Disclosure: I used Github Copilot to help with the change. Code is reviewed, built and application is manually tested by me to the best of my knowledge, before submitting this PR.
Proposed changes
The sonarqube api was not called with the qualifiers=FIL parameter, so for some metrics the reports showed the sum of all metrics of all files instead of the max of all files.
Example:

Sonarqube UI shows this for Cyclomatic Complexity:
The sum of all files is 1238 but the max value on file-by-file basis is 108
Before the fix we see the 1238 value for max in the report:

After the fix we see 108 in the report that is max on a file-by-file basis:
