Previously, querying the artifact's extension in
SinglePublishedArtifact would result in eager creation of the task
that creates the artifact. Typically, this is the bootWar task.
Instead of querying the extension, this commit reworks
SinglePublishedArtifact and its callers to call separate methods for
jar and war artifacts so that the extension check is no longer
required.
Tests have been added to ensure that running help does not trigger
any unexpected task creation. The tests' assertions tolerate some
variation in behavior that depend on the version of Gradle and
whether the configuration cache is enabled.
