Description
When using Gradle, it's difficult to keep the version of a build plugin such as org.hibernate.orm or org.graalvm.buildtools.native up-to-date and/or aligned with other dependencies from the same project. We could make this easier by offering some "plugin management" for Gradle builds. This could be delivered either in the form of a settings plugin or a published version catalog.

Research direction
The issue names Gradle builds and proposes either a settings plugin or a published version catalog for managing plugin versions. No repository files, tests, or entry points are identified, so first inspect the repository's Gradle configuration and existing dependency-management approach. Done means one supported solution is designed, implemented, published or wired into builds, and documented with coverage for aligned plugin versions.
