This requires adding a new secret in GitHub settings,
GRADLE_ENCRYPTION_KEYwhich can be generated withopenssl rand -base64 16.This significantly improves caching performance, not only supporting build cache, but configuration cache as well. The encryption key is necessary to enable that for security. It won't work without it.
Using this action also provides more information on build status in workflow results page. It also adds validation for wrapper jar files.
Marked as draft for now because while I have tested this some, I need to test this more before also adding to prerelease and other actions.
