Historically, Gradle has shipped with some Groovy types in very prominent APIs.
This required the Kotlin DSL to add special integration to work with Groovy closures.
This has also forced plugins written in languages other than Groovy to use Groovy types for some APIs.

When the Kotlin DSL was introduced, we made an effort to add non-Groovy equivalents for all APIs.
This has been mostly done, but there remain a few holdouts (fixing these is out of scope).

            against THE LATEST VERSION WHICH IS RELEASED FROM RELEASE BRANCH (from `released-version.json` on this branch)
            AND LOWER THAN CURRENT BASE VERSION (from `version.txt` on this branch).
            The difference must identically match <a href="${apiChangesJsonFile.asFile.path}">accepted-public-api-changes.json</a>, no more, no less - otherwise the task will fail.
