bootRun's main and jvmArgs properties use mainClassName and
applicationDefaultJvmArgs respectively by convention.
bootJar and bootWar's mainClass property uses mainClassName by
convention.
Previously, the Spring Boot plugin would automatically apply the
dependency management plugin and import the spring-boot-dependencies
bom. This made it very difficult to use Spring Boot's plugin without
also using its dependency management. It also made it difficult to
see where the dependency management was coming from.
This commit updates the Spring Boot plugin so that it no longer
automatically applies the dependency management plugin. Instead, the
plugin now reacts to the dependency management plugin being applied
by importing the spring-boot-dependencies bom. Users that do not
wish to use Spring Boot's dependency management capabilities can now
do so by not applying the dependency management plugin.

Previously, the BootRepackage task would take the output of a Jar
or War task and repackage it in a similar manner to Spring Boot's
Maven plugin. This caused several problems in Gradle including
broken up-to-date checks and a lack of configurability. See the issues
referenced below for full details.
This commit replaces BootRepackage with BootJar and BootWar
for building executable jars and wars respectively. BootJar extends
Gradle's standard Jar task and BootWar extends Gradle's standard War
task. This means that terms of configuration, the creation of
executable jars and wars is now as flexible as the creation of
standards jars and wars.
