Migrate several open source project builds

[cbeams]

The following projects have volunteered to work with us in migrating their builds to gradle-script-kotlin:

• sdeleuze/spring-kotlin
• sdeleuze/geospatial-messenger

Please add a comment if you run an open source project and you'd like to migrate your existing Groovy-based Gradle build to Gradle Script Kotlin. Feel free to do so as well if you've already partially or completely migrated your build.

I'd be happy to move our nebula-plugins projects. We're allergic to boilerplate though, so most of the usual build script configuration happens via plugin in https://github.com/nebula-plugins/nebula-plugin-plugin. Thought you might find us trying the support you're building for scripts, in plugins, valuable.

Incidentally, I migrated one of our plugins to Kotlin already, and except for a case of #8, the conversion with the current API went smoothly - https://github.com/nebula-plugins/gradle-resolution-rules-plugin.

Another project: https://github.com/reactor/projectreactor.io/blob/master/build.gradle.kts

I already migrated to gradle script kotlin, it mostly went without issues, with a few exceptions (questions I asked on slack): https://github.com/Barteks2x/CubicChunks/blob/MC_1.11/build.gradle.kts

There are a few things that seem a bit verbose to me so I'm not sure if I did it correctly.

It'd be useful to have a guide explaining the steps to take to migrate

I still didn't try, but the different with one of my project and the hello-word sample I can visually see are:

• gradle-wrapper.jar 51.6 vs 51.7 KB
• different distributionUrl in gradle-wrapper.properties
• obviously different build.gradle -> build.gradle.kts
• almost same gradlw.bat, I miss the ^M
• different settings.gradle, rootProject.name = vs rootProject.buildFileName=
