What Does This Do

Update the nested smoke-test Gradle distribution, Gradle Tooling API, and CI Visibility Gradle 8 version pin from 8.14.5 to 8.14.6. Update the corresponding plugin test fixtures.

Motivation

Keep the Gradle 8 build tooling and smoke-test coverage on the latest patch release, including its security fixes.

Additional Notes

Gradle 8.14.6 release notes.

The release notes also list these issues resolved in the preceding 8.14.5 patch and included in 8.14.6:

• #37048 [8.14 backport] TransformedClassLoader is not thread-safe
• #37486 [Backport] Excluding dependencies from included builds doesn't work

Validation: ./gradlew -p build-logic :smoke-test:test passed all 32 tests (17 plugin tests and 15 end-to-end tests), with no failures or skips.
