Research direction

Start with the linked Gradle issue and reproduce the configuration-cache failure in the 7.0.1 Gradle plugin. Trace where Spotless reads .editorconfig; done means configuration caching no longer reports that an input from an unknown location has changed.

Reported initially to gradle here: https://github.com/gradle/gradle/issues/25469. This appears to be getting caused by spotless when it reads .editorconfig
