Prior to this change, license.txt and notice.txt files were duplicated
across every subproject in their respective src/main/resources/META-INF
directories.
This commit centralizes these files under the root project at src/dist,
along with the changelog and readme files. The definition of the 'jar'
task has been been extended to include the license and notice files in
module jars as they are created.
The directory is named src/dist because these files are all related to
distribution - the readme is different than the one you see at the root
of the source tree - the intended audience is for users who download
the spring-framework distribution zip. A task to create that
distribution zip will be added in subsequent commits.
The docbook-gradle-plugin has been custom-developed specifically to
handle Spring projects. It is highly opinionated, and not terribly
configurable in its current form. Sources and documentation are
available via the 'gradle-plugins' github repository at
https://github.com/cbeams/gradle-plugins
Note that this repository may soon move locations to the SpringSource
GitHub organization, in which case the url will be
https://github.com/SpringSource/gradle-plugins
In any case, the build plans for these plugins can be found at
https://build.springsource.org/browse/GRADLEPLUGINS
This commit eliminates the 'integration-tests' subproject in favor of
managing these sources under the root project's own 'src' directory.
This helps to avoid special-case handling for integration-tests in the
Gradle build, e.g. avoiding publication of jars to Artifactory /
Maven Central.
It is also semantically more correct. This is not a Spring Framework
subproject so much as it is a collection of integration tests that
span functionality across many subprojects. In this way, it makes
sense to place them directly under the root project.
