23742	Update coverity from 2021.12 to 2024.3	taylor.smock	team	"The last version analyzed by coverity was r18715 (April 26, 2023).

The [https://josm.openstreetmap.de/jenkins/job/JOSM-Coverity/lastBuild/console logs] indicate success, but I don't think it is actually working:
{{{
Build successfully submitted.
 Please ensure that 'cov-build version' matches one of these: 2023.6.2 | 2022.12.2
}}}

I'll note that coverity provides support for 18 months after the base version of each release (I'm not certain how they count that; I suspect it ''includes'' the ""release"" month since 2021.12 appears to have stopped working in May 2023).
That means
* 2021.12 left support in May/June 2023, so we probably have to upgrade to 2023.6 before upgrading to 2024.3.
* 2023.6 will leave support in August/September 2024, so we don't want to upgrade to it and no further.

Almost all of the upgrade considerations have to do with enabled/disabled scan types.
