Update to Gradle 8.8

[guillermo-varela]

Goes up until the more recent Gradle version we can use without introducing breaking changes.

I'd prefer to deal with those changes later when we upgrade to Gradle 9 (which isn't yet at GA).

There is a known issue with Gradle and multi-jar dependencies on plugins, which happen to be the case of Jackson as of version 2.15.0-rc1.

While a workaround could be using resolution strategy to force a downgraded version it's hard to determine the impact (specially medium/long term) of using an older dependency version.

It migth be better just to work with what Gradle allow us to on each version where they fixed (or backported) the issue:

• jackson-core:2.15.0-rc1 causes Gradle (pre-7.6) build failure FasterXML/jackson-core#955
• Gradle 7.4 fails on multi release jar's with JDK 19 code gradle/gradle#24390
• Gradle 7.6.3 fails with plugins that use multi-release JAR files gradle/gradle#27156
• Backport MRJAR fix to 7.6.4 gradle/gradle#27633
• https://discuss.gradle.org/t/is-there-any-way-to-skip-gradle-instrumenting-classpath-file-transformer/45213/3

f82df5c adds tests for the known Gradle version this plugin would be able to support.

Fully in agreement with this. We probably need to update the readme or version 3 of this plugin, to state which gradle versions are supported.
