Add classpath collision detection feature/task #145

Open jjohannes opened 5 months ago

A feature that checks the (runtime) classpath for duplicated classes. I think this would fit well into the scope of the detection plugin. Although until now, we do not have tasks in the plugin. So this is certainly something to discuss first.

In Android projects, this feature is already delivered as part of AGP
For Java projects, I currently recommend io.fuchs.gradle.classpath-collision-detector as an additional plugin for this.

Not sure if I should chime in here but my opinion is that there already is a plugin that does that pretty well (the one you mentioned) so duplicating the work is unnecessary. Perhaps mentioning it in the README will be enough. Or you're thinking of somehow merging that plugin in here as you did with the logging-capabilities one?
