This expands the gradle wrapper shell script used by the buildserver for
usage outside the buildserver environment. It also allows downloading
whitelisted versions of gradle if they are not yet deployed to the
buildserver by simply upsating the copy of fdroidserver (in contrast to
having to reprovision the whole buildserver).
We first move the buildserver/gradle shell script to the repo root
as gradlew-fdroid, as it's an fdroid specific gradle wrapper.
We also now sync it inside the build VM before each build.
We then add a list of whitelisted gradle distributions taken from the
makebuildserver script.
The script additionally now reads two env vars which tell it where to
expect installed versions of gradle and where it might store downloaded
gradle .zip files. Both of those are configurable from config.py. As the
first should normally just be a subdir of the second it's not exposed in
the example config.py but only used by the buildserver config.py.
Default config now uses this internal gradle wrapper but a path to a
custom wrapper or specific gradle distribution can still be set from
config.py.

As you can see in fdroidserver/common.py:219
for java_version in ('7', '8', '9'):
the code look for java version without the 1. in front, after getting a
bunch of error message that JDK could't be found, investigating the code
and documentation I discovered my configuration was ignored because of
this and realized the example was wrong
The currently included Qt has known security issues and is outdated. This
can now be replaced by downloading and installing the Qt installer using
the sudo= build field. @relan's provisioner system will also replace this
once that's done. There are only two apps that currently use the Qt stuff:
* csd.qtproject.minesweeper
* org.openorienteering.mapper
The new policy is to move APKs with invalid signatures to the archive,
and only add those APKs to the archive's index if they have valid MD5
signatures.

For people using slow, expensive, and/or flaky internet, liberal use of
caching can make a huge difference. The restricted environment of the
gpjenkins box has been a good test environment for this (Tor-only,
whitelist of allowed IPs to visit, home internet connection).
This syncs up the field names between the fdroiddata .yml files, the keys
used in the implementation in fdroidserver, the index data format, and the
final data structures in fdroidclient. This makes it easier for devs to
follow, and makes the Jackson parsing library automatically handle
converting the data from the index file to Java instances.
This bumps the metadata version since the apkcache will have to be
discarded.
Here are the name changes:
* apkname --> apkName
* id --> packageName
* sha256 --> hash
* version --> versionName
* versioncode --> versionCode
tests/repo/index.xml was changed only to bump the metadata version
from 17 to 18.
Using datetime instances as the internal format makes it much easier to
convert between the formats needed for index.xml and index-v1. apkcache
still uses time tuples and known_apks.txt still uses the ISO date.
A Binary Transparency Log is a append only log of all binaries published by
a repo. This is useful for people to find whether the binary they have
matches what F-Droid has published, and also makes it more difficult for
the published history to be changed without notice, or for a server to give
specific users custom malware binaries.
