The language/API version restriction here is to make sure the code works
with Gradle of earlier versions, but all versions of Gradle that we
support already depend on Kotlin 1.3+.
With gradle > 5.0 `publish()` helper call should be done before
`noDefaultJar()` or any other artifact hacks, otherwise singing plugin doesn't sign any jars
Introduce Gradle models for plugins 'kotlin-allopen', 'kotlin-noarg' and
'kotlin-sam-with-receiver'. Corresponding model builders are registered
in each one of those plugin main classes.
A Kapt model for Gradle projects including 'kotlin-kapt'plugin is
introduced. Its model builder KaptModelBuilder produces an
implementation of these models and can be queried through the Gradle
Tooling API when needed. Model builder is registered in
Kapt3GradleSubplugin.
A KotlinProject model for Gradle projects including Kotlin (JVM, JS or
common) plugins is introduced. Its model builder KotlinModelBuilder
produces an implementation of these models and can be queried through
the Gradle Tooling API when needed. Model builder is registered in the
corresponding Kotlin Gradle plugins.
Model definition should be published as a separate artifact in public
repositories so it can be consumed when needed.
