Moving the Lucene / Solr build system from Ant+Ivy+MavenShadowBuild to Gradle.

[Mark Miller <ma...@gmail.com>]

Hey all,

I know a few people expressed interest in helping out with moving the build
to gradle.

Things are starting to shape up pretty nicely, so probably a good time to
help wrap up the long tail of little bs. If you are interested and want a
somewhat isolated and tractable task, hit me up.

If you are less inclined or able to pitch in in that way, I could certainly
use some feedback from casual devs downloading and trying things out.

Let me know if everything immediately brings your system to a crawl for
example. I've got some parallelism by default for a pretty beefy CPU and we
will need to start working towards better defaults across more developers.
