// Lists all plugins used throughout the project
/*
* By listing all the plugins used throughout all subprojects in the root project build script, it
* ensures that the build script classpath remains the same for all projects. This avoids potential
* problems with mismatching versions of transitive plugin dependencies. A subproject that applies
* an unlisted plugin will have that plugin and its dependencies _appended_ to the classpath, not
* replacing pre-existing dependencies.
