Everyone,
    this change set should significantly speed up incremental builds as well as fixing some issues we had with bad task deps.

Using a second 'noop/no change'  "gradle sdk" as benchmark, on my virtual windows build, the time drops from around 65 seconds to
On my virtual windows build, a second 'gradle sdk' takes ~65, after this change set around 10 seconds.

One risk of this change - I might have missed a dependency. After this goes in tomorrow, please be on the lookout for odd build behavior and let me know.

We have a tool that also help track this....

bash tools/scripts/whatChanged
does a great job in showing what under ./build changed.
If something should change and does not ... then we need to correct it.

Kevin,
    would you review:
