Remote script execution

Executing Groovy script on the remote host.

task executeScript(type: SshTask) {
  session(remotes.server) {
    executeScript groovy: """
      // here will be executed on the remote host
      println System.properties['user.name']
    """
  }
}

Also giving dependencies:

dependencies {
  remoteRuntime 'org.codehaus.groovy:groovy-all:2.3.0'
}

task executeScript(type: SshTask) {
  session(remotes.server) {
    executeScript classpath: dependencies.remoteRuntime, groovy: """
      // here will be executed on the remote host
      println System.properties['user.name']
    """
  }
}
}

TODO:

• What is default groovy dependencies? Bundled one with Gradle?

Start with the SshTask session and executeScript entry points shown in the issue, then inspect how the remoteRuntime dependency is passed. Clarify which Groovy dependencies should be available by default and how an explicit classpath is handled. Done means the remote Groovy example works with and without the documented dependency configuration.
