Description
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
Can't use [type-safe project accessors](https://docs.gradle.org/7.0/userguide/declaring_dependencies.html#sec:type-safe-project-accessors) in config:
```kotlin
exclude("my-project:subproject")
```
We migrated to type-safe project accessors but have to use string paths in configs.
It'd great to use the same notation.
**Describe the solution you'd like**
To pass type-safe project accessors to the config:
```kotlin
exclude(projects.myProject.subproject)
```
**Describe alternatives you've considered**
```kotlin
exclude(projects.myProject.subproject.dependencyProject.path)
```

Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the config API that accepts exclude("my-project:subproject") and inspect how project dependencies are represented; done means exclude(projects.myProject.subproject) is accepted while existing string paths remain supported, with coverage for both forms.
