Kobweb CLI should highlight Gradle exceptions #180

Sometimes, the Kobweb plugin communicates something bad happened by throwing an exception. For example, if you have duplicate routes, you might get:

1: Task failed with an exception.                                               
-----------                                                                     
* What went wrong:                                                              
Execution failed for task ':site:kobwebGenSiteEntry'.                           
> The route "/" was defined more than once (see the following locations):       
  - multimodule.pages.HomePage                                                  
  - multimodule.lib.pages.HomePage

Followed by just a bunch of barfed callstack garbage.

It would be really nice if it detected those messages and surfaced them closer to the command prompt (like it already does with warnings and errors)

If we fix this, we can also clean up the FrontendData / BackendData assert functions, which really should throw instead of logging errors.
