The Gradle "language is based on Groovy, with some additions to make it easier to describe a build":
https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/writing_build_scripts.html
This change adds highlighting of Gradle files like (other) Groovy files.
To be honest, the highlighting isn't super, but:
- This is an obvious improvement over no highlighting; strings, comments, some keywords and some method names are now highlighted
- When I have tested this, nothing has been wrong
So this is an improvement, but there would still be room for more in a Gradle-specific grammar.
