Create a small Groovy script that can be used in `settings.gradle`
files to extend `repositories` to support the various maven
repositories required for our build.

Add a `NestedFileSystemProvider` implementation so that the JDK's
`ZipFileSystem` can load content from nested jars and nested
directory entries.
Creating a `ZipFileSystem` may be a relatively expensive operation as
zip structures need to be parsed and in the case of directory entries
a virtual datablock nees to be generated on the fly. As such, we
install the `ZipFileSystem` as late as possible since in a typical
application it may never be needed.
This commit also tweaks Gradle and Maven plugins to ensure that the
service loader file is written to repackaged jars.
Closes gh-7161
Update the jar `Handler` class to support a non-reflective fallback
mechanism when possible. The updated code attempts to capture a regular
jar URL before our handler is installed. It can then use that URL as
context when creating the a fallback URL. The JDK jar `Handler` will
be copied from the context URL to the fallback URL.
Without this commit, resolving new Tomcat URLs of the form
`jar:war:file:...` would result in an ugly "Illegal reflective access"
warning.
Fixes gh-18631
Update all dependencies declarations to use the form `scope(reference)`
rather than `scope reference`.
Prior to this commit we declared dependencies without parentheses unless
we were forced to add them due to an `exclude`.
Replace Gradle single quote strings with the double quote form
whenever possible. The change helps to being consistency to the
dependencies section where mostly single quotes were used, but
occasionally double quotes were required due to `${}` references.
