With the introduction of Gradle we lost the list of version properties
that were previously in the spring-boot-dependencies POM and were also
linked inside the documentation. This commit introduces an appendix
section in the docs and links the appropriate places to the new section
to restore discoverability.

We build with Java 8, 11, and 13 without specifying target
compatibility for the bytecode of the app that's placed in the image.
The built image uses Java 11 and when the app is built with Java 13
it fails to start as the Java 11 VM can't read that Java 13 bytecode.
This commit configures the app that's placed in the image to be built
with target compatibility of 1.8. This allows it to be compiled with
all version of Java with which we build and to also be compatible
with the JVM that's in the image.

Update all dependencies declarations to use the form `scope(reference)`
rather than `scope reference`.
Prior to this commit we declared dependencies without parentheses unless
we were forced to add them due to an `exclude`.
Replace Gradle single quote strings with the double quote form
whenever possible. The change helps to being consistency to the
dependencies section where mostly single quotes were used, but
occasionally double quotes were required due to `${}` references.
This paves the way for publishing Gradle module metadata once the
problem caused by snapshot versions and our two-step publication
process has been addressed.

This reverts commit b34a311d02 as,
having disabled the publishing of Gradle's module metadata (4f75ab5),
the changes are no longer needed.

Previously, enforcedPlatform dependencies were using to pull in the
constraints defined in spring-boot-dependencies and
spring-boot-parent and applied them strictly so that the constrained
version had to be used. This worked as intended in Spring Boot's own
build but incorrectly enforced those same strict version requirements
on external consumers of Spring Boot's modules.
This commit reworks how Spring Boot defines its internal dependency
management so that platform dependencies are exposed to external
consumers while enforced platform dependencies are using internally.

Enforcing the spring-boot-dependencies platform makes for too strong
an opinion about the version of Kotlin that should be on the build
script's classpath. It clashes with the version of Kotlin that's
embedded in Gradle and used with Gradle's Kotlin DSL.
This commit switches to a normal platform (rather than an enforced
platform) which allows it to express an opinion about the version of
Kotlin without making it a strict requirement.
Closes gh-19609
Previously, reflective access to the archiveBaseName property
incorrectly treated the property as a String. It should have been
treated as a Property<String>. This caused an exception to be thrown
and the deprecated baseName property to be used as a fallback.
This commit corrects the reflective access to the archiveBaseName
property. It also updates the tests to fail if a build outputs a
deprecation warning. Tests that use Gradle's Maven plugin have been
updated to expect deprecation warnings when run with Gradle 6.0 where
the plugin is deprecated. Tests that configure an archive's base name
have been updated to use archiveBaseName when running with Gradle 6.0
and later.
Closes gh-18663
Previously, our Gradle plugin was not tested against Gradle 6.0,
a number of deprecation warnings were output when using the plugin
with Gradle 6, and some functionality related to the application
plugin did not work as expected.
This commit tests the plugin against Gradle 6. It also avoids calling
deprecated APIs. The plugin is compatibile against Gradle 4.10 where
the deprecated APIs' replacements are not available so reflection is
used to call the replcaements. Lastly, the way in which the base name
of the boot distribution that is created when the application plugin
is applied has been modified to ensure that it is effective when using
Gradle 6.
