Research direction
Start by tracing the Gradle integration around FormatterStep configuration and the handling of config files from resource jars. Check how formatter state is compared at configuration time and how task inputs are currently declared. Done means determining whether a RegularFileProperty can represent License, EclipseFormatter, and ImportOrder inputs while supporting outputs from other tasks and up-to-date checking.

Description
First, I have read all the issues about config files in resource jars etc. In my understanding, the problem with these approaches is that FormatterSteps are immutable states that must be compared to determine whether something has changed. For this comparison, the config files' content must be read at configuration time. This prohibits lazily extracting these files from the resource jar to the build directory because they have to exist before the build even starts.
However, wouldn't it be possible to use something like @InputFile RegularFilePropery as an alternative? It would leverage gradles mechanism of up-to-date checking and allows developers to wire outputs from other tasks as inputs to spotless.
