Build local unreleased bwc versions more efficient for tests (7.x backport) (#63188) ...

* Wire local unreleased bwc versions more efficient for tests (#62473)

For testing against the local distribution we already avoid the packaging/unpackaging 
cycle of es distributions when setting up test clusters. This PR adopts the usage of the
expanded created distributions for unreleased bwc versions (versions that are checkout 
from a branch and build from source in the :distribution:bwc:minor / :distribution:bwc:bugfix). 
This makes the setup of bwc based cross version tests a bit faster by avoiding 
the unpackaging overhead. We still assemble both in the bwcBuild tasks atm 
which will be addressed in a later issue.

This reworks the :distribution:bwc project:

- Convert all the custom logic from build script logic (groovy) into gradle binary plugins (java)
- Tried to make the bwc setup logic a bit more readable
- Add basic functional test coverage for the bwc logic this PR tweaked.
- Extracted a general internal BWC Git plugin out of the bwc setup plugin to improve maintenance 
and testability
- Changed the InternalDistributionPlugin to resolve the extracted distro instead on relying 
on unpacking the distribution archive

* Fix java8 incompatibility
* Fix extension calculation for 6.8.* distribution
