Subject: [PATCH] This diff introduces a property-based versioning approach for
 the Langchain4j dependencies in a Gradle build.  Let's break down the
 changes:

* **`api/gradle.properties`**: A new property `langchain4j.version` is defined and set to `0.36.0`.  This centralizes the version number, making updates easier.

* **`api/build.gradle.kts`**:  All Langchain4j dependency declarations now use the `langchain4j.version` property via `${properties["langchain4j.version"]}`. This replaces the hardcoded version numbers.  This change affects multiple Langchain4j modules, including `easy-rag`, `pgvector`, various document parsers, web search engines, Hugging Face integration, Spring Boot starters, and test dependencies.  The commented-out dependencies also adopt this approach.

**Benefits of this Change:**

* **Single Source of Truth:**  Managing the Langchain4j version in one place simplifies updates and ensures consistency across all dependencies.
* **Easier Upgrades:**  Changing the version requires modifying only the `gradle.properties` file.
* **Maintainability:**  The build script is cleaner and easier to understand.

This is a standard and recommended practice for dependency management in Gradle.  It promotes maintainability and reduces the risk of errors associated with manual version updates across multiple locations.
