Feature request for a Gradle plugin to build Gradle projects in craft-parts. The plugin was implemented in PR #1056 with gradlew fallback support and further enhanced in subsequent PRs. Issue is inactive with no maintainer response.

Suggested action: close stale

Reason: The requested Gradle plugin was implemented in PR #1056 (commit 87e494f5), which added craft_parts/plugins/gradle_plugin.py with gradlew fallback logic exactly as requested. Subsequent PRs #1425, #1436, and #1559 further enhanced the plugin. The issue has had no maintainer interaction and the feature is now available.

Issue body

### What needs to get done Add gradle plugin that will allow build gradle projects that are de-facto standard for modern Java. Gradle contains breaking changes between major versions so the plugin should try to use gradle wrapper if present. When the gradle wrapper is not present it should expect the user to install gradle in the build image manually. ### Why it needs to get done Gradle is a de-facto standard for the modern Java projects. Is it required as a part of wider goal of supporting Spring Boot.
