This is superseded by: https://gradle.github.io/playframework/

This commit removes:

- The `platform-play` and `ide-play` subprojects

- The documentation for the functionality provided by these projects

Add DSL reference for C++ components and IDE tasks

Move new register/named methods to base container types

Now it's possible to use a custom HTTP header to authorize access to

Maven repositories. This enables Gradle to access private GitLab and TFS

repositories used as Maven repositories or any OAuth2 protected Maven

repository.

Resolves #5571.

This commit adds a type safe DSL for customizing the generated Ivy

module descriptor of an IvyPublication to the ivy-publish plugin:

descriptor {

license {

name = 'The Apache License, Version 2.0'

url = 'http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.txt'

}

author {

name = 'Jane Doe'

url = 'http://example.com/users/jane'

}

description {

text = 'A concise description of my library'

homepage = 'http://www.example.com/library'

}

}

Only interfaces are exposed as part of the public API, all of them are

prefixed with `IvyModuleDescriptor`. The exposed properties make use of

the Provider API.

In addition, the new DSL is documented in the User Guide, DSL Reference

and Release Notes.

Resolves #5193.
