Update Gradle from 7.1 to 8.14.3

[Copilot]

Upgrades Gradle wrapper from 7.1 (June 2021) to 8.14.3, bringing ~4 years of improvements including security fixes, performance enhancements, and better Java toolchain support.

Changes

• Wrapper configuration: Updated distribution URL to gradle-8.14.3-bin.zip, added network timeout and URL validation
• Wrapper binaries: Regenerated gradle-wrapper.jar, gradlew, and gradlew.bat via ./gradlew wrapper --gradle-version=8.14.3

Compatibility

All existing plugins remain compatible (Kotlin 1.9.22, IntelliJ 1.17.4). Build scripts require no modifications. Gradle 9.0 deprecation warnings are expected but non-blocking.

The CLASSPATH is set to escaped empty quotes instead of being empty or pointing to the gradle-wrapper.jar. This is incorrect and will cause the Java command at line 251 to fail since it tries to use this CLASSPATH with the -jar flag. The CLASSPATH should either be empty or properly reference the gradle-wrapper.jar path, but the current value of escaped quotes will break the execution.

Suggested change

	CLASSPATH="\\\"\\\""
	CLASSPATH=""

[Copilot]

The CLASSPATH variable is set to empty instead of pointing to the gradle-wrapper.jar file. Line 77 attempts to use this empty CLASSPATH with the -classpath parameter while also using the -jar flag. When using -jar, the -classpath option is ignored, but this empty CLASSPATH combined with relying on -jar suggests inconsistency with how the wrapper is being invoked. The CLASSPATH should either be properly set or the invocation method should be clarified.

Suggested change

	set CLASSPATH=
	@rem Execute Gradle
	"%JAVA_EXE%" %DEFAULT_JVM_OPTS% %JAVA_OPTS% %GRADLE_OPTS% "-Dorg.gradle.appname=%APP_BASE_NAME%" -classpath "%CLASSPATH%" -jar "%APP_HOME%\gradle\wrapper\gradle-wrapper.jar" %*
	@rem Execute Gradle
	"%JAVA_EXE%" %DEFAULT_JVM_OPTS% %JAVA_OPTS% %GRADLE_OPTS% "-Dorg.gradle.appname=%APP_BASE_NAME%" -jar "%APP_HOME%\gradle\wrapper\gradle-wrapper.jar" %*

The shebang has been changed from "#!/usr/bin/env sh" to "#!/bin/sh". While this is a valid change that comes with newer Gradle wrapper versions, it reduces portability compared to the env-based approach. The env-based shebang searches the PATH for sh, whereas the direct path requires sh to be at exactly /bin/sh. This change should be intentional and matches standard Gradle 8.x wrapper scripts, but it's worth noting this could affect systems where sh is installed in a non-standard location.
