In our use-case, the input directory contains other stuff than plain JavaCC input files. Here some works to fix this issue.
The base class for CompileJavaccTask is now a SourceTask, given us
access to easy filtering using includes and excludes as well as
easier handling of source files.
Added default include filter **/*.jj to only use JavaCC input
files.
The addition of a default include filter could be seen as a BC break. Removing it would be ok since it is now possible to use include "**/*.jj" in task configuration to only include certain files.
I had to change some tests because the behavior is a bit more clever now. Output directory is now not created if there is no input files and input directory is not required anymore.
