In preparation for a unified release process, we need to be able to
generate the pom files independently of trying to actually publish. This
change adds back the maven-publish plugin just for that purpose. The
nexus plugin still exists for now, so that we do not break snapshots,
but that can be removed at a later time once snapshots are happenign
through the unified tools. Note I also changed the dir jars are written
into so that all our artifacts are under build/distributions.
The build currently uses the old maven support in gradle. This commit
switches to use the newer maven-publish plugin. This will allow future
changes, for example, easily publishing to artifactory.
An additional part of this change makes publishing of build-tools part
of the normal publishing, instead of requiring a separate upload step
from within buildSrc. That also sets us up for a follow up to enable
precomit checks on the buildSrc code itself.
This change adds a Fixture class for use by gradle. A Fixture is an
external process that integration tests will use. It can be added as a
dependsOn for integTest, and will automatically be shutdown upon success
or failure, as well as relevant information dumped on failure. There is
also an example fixture in this change.
