Issue: gradle addExtension fails if you have no root properties file defined

### Describe the bug

Running `gradle addExtension --extensions='container-image-jib'` with no root properties file, I.E. `gradle.properties` fails.

### Expected behavior

I would expect the extension to be added successfully.

### Actual behavior

```
❯ gradle addExtension --extensions='container-image-jib'
> Task :lib:addExtension FAILED

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':lib:addExtension'.
> Failed to add extensions [container-image-jib]

* Try:
> Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace.
> Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output.
> Run with --scan to get full insights.

* Get more help at https://help.gradle.org

### How to Reproduce?

Set up a new gradle project as follows:

```
❯ gradle init

Select type of project to generate:
  1: basic
  2: application
  3: library
  4: Gradle plugin
Enter selection (default: basic) [1..4] 3

Select implementation language:
  1: C++
  2: Groovy
  3: Java
  4: Kotlin
  5: Scala
  6: Swift
Enter selection (default: Java) [1..6] 3

Select build script DSL:
  1: Groovy
  2: Kotlin
Enter selection (default: Groovy) [1..2] 1

Generate build using new APIs and behavior (some features may change in the next minor release)? (default: no) [yes, no]
Select test framework:
  1: JUnit 4
  2: TestNG
  3: Spock
  4: JUnit Jupiter
Enter selection (default: JUnit Jupiter) [1..4]

Project name (default: code):
Source package (default: code):

> Task :init

```
Overwrite `lib/build.gradle` with the following:

```
plugins {
    // Apply the java-library plugin for API and implementation separation.
    id 'java-library'
    id "io.quarkus" version "2.14.2.Final"
}

repositories {
    // Use Maven Central for resolving dependencies.
    mavenCentral()
    mavenLocal()
}

dependencies {
    implementation enforcedPlatform(implementation(enforcedPlatform("io.quarkus.platform:quarkus-bom:2.14.2.Final")))
    implementation 'io.quarkus:quarkus-container-image-jib-parent:2.14.2.Final'
    implementation 'io.quarkus:quarkus-container-image-jib:2.14.2.Final'
}
```

Run `gradle addExtension --extensions='container-image-jib'` and watch it fail.

Now add `gradle.properties` to the root directory of the project, re-run the command and watch it pass.
