Andy Wilkinson e7c0bec8ab Improve input/output configuration of DSL-created bootBuildInfo task ...

There are two problems with the current approach:

1. The DSL uses dependsOn to try to inform Gradle of the dependency
   relationship between tasks. This isn't recommended and inputs and
   outputs should be used instead.
2. The generated build-info.properties file doesn't appear on the
   classpath when running an application in an IDE, unless that IDE
   delegates the execution to Gradle.

This commit addresses both of these shortcomings by configuring the
bootBuildInfo task's output to be a src dir of the main source set's
resources. This gives Gradle the preferred input- and output-based
view of the tasks' interdependencies. It also causes the generated
build-info.properties to appear on the classpath in IDEs that don't
delegate to Gradle. For example, the Eclipse Buildship plugin
automatically configures build/bootBuildInfo as a source folder on
the project's build path.
