Gradle Wrapper Upgrade should also update shell scripts, gradle-wrapper.jar

Often it is the case that there are also gradle and gradlew.bat file changes alongside the wrapper properties file. Sometimes, very rarely, there is also a change to gradle-wrapper.jar. Is there a plan to handle these as well?

At least last I looked at the docs, the suggestion was to effectively run gradlew wrapper --gradle-version=<new_version> twice. The internals are to update the property file and to copy the two scripts and jar from the currently executing Gradle distribution. So in essence, the first pass changes the wrapper properties file and the second pass picks up new changes from the downloaded distribution if there were any.

You are, of course, correct about the jar and shell scripts occasionally changing. We don't have a good way to handle this right now. Will likely revisit this as we bring Groovy and Gradle ASTs online so that we can automate gradle dependency management.
