This implementation is somewhat special from our other Gradle properties, because it does not get declared in the root gradle.properties. The reason is that included builds are supposed to have their own properties e.g.
root_project/gradle.properties
root_project/build-conventions/gradle.properties
Instead of declaring the property in different places which might lead to confusion, this leaves the property undeclared, with the Gradle scripts assuming a default value of true. The only time this is expected to be overridden is due to a workaround for an Android Studio bug.
In addition to using build-conventions to make the build scripts more DRY, the following additional changes are included in this commit:
- Convert build scripts to kts
- Fix a double-build issue with the SDK
- Add configurable options for treating compiler warnings as errors (disabled for now, due to extensive warnings that need to be corrected first)
- Added detekt as an additional static analysis tool
