Provide access to the raw command line arguments

[aalmiray]

Provide access to the raw command line arguments used to launch a Gradle instance.

Expected Behavior

Lookup the raw arguments using a public type. It could be StartParameter or something else.

Current Behavior

The arguments are hidden for public consumption. FWIW arguments are captured and exposed via buildscans, so the behavior exists but it's not publicly available to everyone else.

Context

I'm interested in this feature because of https://reproducible-builds.org/docs/jvm/ where the build arguments are set as part of the data required by rebuilders. there might be other use cases for being able to inspect unparsed arguments.

Thank you for your interest in Gradle!

This feature request is in the backlog of the relevant team, but this area of Gradle is currently not a focus one, so it might take a while before it gets implemented.
