Update Dependencies

[DominicOram]

As a developer I would like to be sure that none of the IBEX dependencies get too out of date. Following the latest release (#6149) we should update our dependencies. See https://github.com/ISISComputingGroup/ibex_developers_manual/wiki/Dependency-updates

Acceptance Criteria

• Dependencies are updated
• New dependencies are listed in the upcoming release notes
• IBEX is roughly tested to confirm it still works

#6363 should be done first but as part of this ticket

[FreddieAkeroyd]

The dependency update page makes no reference to epics base or support modules - should these be a separate tickets or done as part of this?

[DominicOram]

They should be done as part of this. I think we said we'd keep adding things to the list of what to update when we came across them.

[FreddieAkeroyd]

Not sure if #6131 may have an impact on this, we may for example change from tar onto vendor branch to fork for some of the epics modules we use

@FreddieAkeroyd thanks for pointing this out. I am not sure of how to go about updating epics dependencies yet. I will wait for the outcome of meeting #6131
