/**
 * The DSL for declaring plugins to use in a script.
 * <p>
 * In a build script, the <code>plugins {}</code> script block API is of this type.
 * That is, you can use this API in the body of the plugins script block to declare plugins to be used for the script.
 * </p>
 * <h3>Relationship with the apply() method</h3>
 * <p>
 * The <code>plugins {}</code> block serves a similar purpose to the {@link org.gradle.api.plugins.PluginAware#apply(java.util.Map)} method
 * that can be used to apply a plugin directly to a {@code Project} object or similar.
 * A key difference is that plugins applied via the <code>plugins {}</code> block are conceptually applied to the script, and by extension the script target.
 * At this time there is no observable practical difference between the two approaches with regard to the end result.
 * </p>
 * <h3>Strict Syntax</h3>
 * <p>
 * When used in a build script, the <code>plugins {}</code> block only allows a strict subset of the full build script programming language.
 * Only the API of this type can be used, and values must be literal (e.g. constant strings, not variables).
 * Interpolated strings are permitted for {@link PluginDependencySpec#version(String)}, however replacement values must be sourced from Gradle properties.
 * Moreover, the <code>plugins {}</code> block must be the first code of a build script.
 * There is one exception to this, in that the {@code buildscript {}} block (used for declaring script dependencies) must precede it.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * This implies the following constraints:
 * </p>
 * <ul>
 * <li>Only {@link #id(String)}, {@link #alias(Provider)}, and {@link #alias(ProviderConvertible)} method calls may be top level statements</li>
 * <li>{@link #id(String)} calls may only be followed by a {@link PluginDependencySpec#version(String)} and/or {@link PluginDependencySpec#apply(boolean)} method call on the returned object</li>
 * <li>{@link #id(String)}, {@link PluginDependencySpec#version(String)} and {@link PluginDependencySpec#apply(boolean)} methods must be called with a literal argument (i.e. not a variable)</li>
 * <li>The <code>plugins {}</code> script block must follow any <code>buildscript {}</code> script block, but must precede all other logic in the script</li>
 * </ul>
 * <h3>Available Plugins</h3>
 * <h4>Core Plugins</h4>
 * <p>
 * Core Gradle plugins are able to be applied using the <code>plugins {}</code> block.
 * Core plugins must be specified without a version number, and can have a <i>qualified</i> or <i>unqualified</i> id.
 * That is, the {@code java} plugin can be used via:
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 * plugins {
 *   id 'java'
 * }
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 * Or via:
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 * plugins {
 *   id 'org.gradle.java'
 * }
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 * Core Gradle plugins use the {@code org.gradle} namespace.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * For the list of available core plugins for a particular Gradle version, please consult the user manual.
 * </p>
 * <h4>Community Plugins</h4>
 * <p>
 * Non-core plugins are available from the <a href="http://plugins.gradle.org">Gradle Plugin Portal</a>.
 * These plugins are contributed by users of Gradle to extend Gradle's functionality.
 * Visit <a href="http://plugins.gradle.org">plugins.gradle.org</a> to browse the available plugins and versions.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * To use a community plugin, the fully qualified id must be specified along with a version.
 * </p>
 * <h3>Settings Script Usage</h3>
 * <p>
 * When used in a settings script, this API sets the default version of a plugin, allowing build scripts to
 * reference a plugin id without an associated version.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Within a settings script, the "Strict Syntax" rules outlined above do not apply. The `plugins` block may contain
 * arbitrary code, and version Strings may contain property replacements. It is an error to call the `apply` method
 * with a value other than `false` (the default).
 * </p>

     *     id "org.company.myplugin"
