Why is `RunPluginVerifierTask` an `@UntrackedTask`?

[jhonnen]

Describe the need of your request

runPluginVerifier takes quite some time, so it would benefit from up-to-date checks and the build cache. It seems to me that the task has well defined inputs so why is it marked as @UntrackedTask?

Proposed solution

Make it a @CacheableTask instead.

just out of curiosity, why do you invoke it more often than just before cutting a release and testing the targeted IDEs' compatibility?

[jhonnen]

This is for our internal plugins. They are continuously deployed so the plugin verifier runs on every pull request.

External dependencies to take into account:

• by default, "latest" PV version is downloaded/used -> it might change anytime
• by default, "all compatible" IDEs are checked -> they might change
• verifying against local IDE distributions -> we can't track if they changed
