Retrofit library stop working inside plugin

[dmitry-zhuravlev]

Recently I noticed that retrofit library stop working inside plugin. Currently we use this library to invoke some commands like ping, quit on Kobalt server. We have the same situation like described here:
square/retrofit#2102

The reason is that Retrofit try to determine the running platform by executing Class.forName("android.os.Build") So it works previously but stop working for now. The explanation can be found in comments here: square/retrofit#2103

android.os.Builder class was not on the classpath in the IDEA 2016.2 version of the Android Support plugin but has appeared on the classpath in the 2016.3 version.

So it seems that current bundled version of Retrofit library not suited anymore for us. So we can:

• Switch to another library
• Try to build this library from source including fix Prevent NPE when retrofit is used by an IntelliJ plugin. The Android … square/retrofit#2103 and test if it works.

What do you think @cbeust ?

Provided some temporary solution with Retrofit library which is builded manually. Should be updated to the actual release version of library as soon as square/retrofit#2103 will be merged.

Not crazy about having our own version of public libraries but as long as it's temporary until Retrofit merges their fix, not a big deal. Thanks for catching this!
