0.27.0

• Added new publishing related tasks
  • releaseRepository releases a staging repository at the end of the build
    and can be executed in the same build as the publishing task. This allows
    having automatic releases without permanently enabling them.
  • publishToMavenCentral as alias for running publishAllPublicationsToMavenCentralRepository.
  • publishAndReleaseToMavenCentral as alias for running both of the above.
  • For more information checkout the docs.
• It is now possible to only pass a subset of the parameters to
  coordinates(...) and leave the others at their default value.
  Thanks to @sschuberth for the contribution.
• Fixed java-test-fixture projects being broken with Gradle 8.6.
• Deprecated closeAndReleaseRepository in favor of releaseRepository.
