Determine the minimum gradle version based on the wrapper (#32226)

* Determine the minimum gradle version based on the wrapper

This is restrictive and forces users of the plugin to move together with
us, but without integration tests it's close to impossible to make sure
that the claimed compatability is really there.
If we do want to offer more flexibility, we should add those tests
first.

* Track gradle version in individual file

* PR review
