Generate native installers with Gradle JavaFX plugin
The plugin's jfx* tasks tie into the normal Gradle build lifecycle, such
that `gradle build` will now generate executables and installers
according to the OS on which the build is being run. These files are
output to the `build/distributions` directory.

Installers work as expected OS X and Linux at this point.

Windows installers do build, but a very particular configuration is
necessary on the Windows machine doing the building (this configuration
is to be documented in #109). However, even when the configuration is in
place and the MSI installer is successfully built, there is still a
fatal error at installer execution time relating to a missing
msvp100.dll file. See details at
https://bitbucket.org/shemnon/javafx-gradle/issue/43. An issue has been
created to track this from the Bitsquare side as well--see #108.

The changes made in this commit are based on on the samples at
http://bitbucket.org/shemnon/javafx-gradle and the article at
http://jaxenter.com/tutorial-a-guide-to-the-gradle-javafx-plugin-46270.html

The gradle/javafx.gradle file is copied directly from the sources in the
bitbucket repository above, as is apparently the convention (not sure
why this isn't part of the plugin itself, but that's a question to be
addressed later).
