Adjust dependencies
Ignore failing test on Windows 7
Suppress C++ integTests when no tool chain available

* cpp.gradle: introduce project property 'cppIntegTestDisabled' and  set
systemProperty 'org.gradle.integtest.cpp.toolChains' to value 'none'
when property 'cppIntegTestDisabled' set to true
* SingleToolChainTestRunner: create no executions when systemProperty
'org.gradle.integtest.cpp.toolChains' has value 'none'
* TestPreCondition: add enum  value CPP_TOOLCHAINS_AVAILABLE
* MultiToolChainIntegrationTest: require pre-condition
CPP_TOOLCHAINS_AVAILABLE
fix coding errors in test class
Ignore gradle.properties file
Fix unit test: set explicit file encoding on reading file content
Make implementation of GFileUtils.mkdirs() more robust on windows
Suppress C++ integTests when no tool chain available
Set custom version number

* set version to "1.8-F-1"
* ignore failing FunctionalReleaseNotesTest
Update unit tests for task graph/plan executors:
 * fix name of DefaultTaskGraphExecuterTest to DefaultTaskGraphExecutorTest
 * move unit tests targeting DefaultTaskPlanExecutor to dedicated test class
 * extract common code of DefaultTaskGraphExecutorTest and DefaultTaskPlanExecutorTest to helper class ExecutorTestHelper
Fix naming: executer --> executor

* rename TaskGraphExecuter to TaskGraphExecutor
* rename DefaultTaskGraphExecuter to DefaultTaskGraphExecutor
* rename related fields accordingly
Add mutex configuration to to the Task API
Start testing the ParallelTaskPlanExecutor:
 * push common test cases from DefaultTaskPlanExecutor up to new base class AbstractTaskPlanExecutorTest
 * extract logic to create test tasks to new class ExecutorTestHelper + extend logic with option to make make task execution block with CountDownLatches
 * start new ParallelTaskPlanExecutorTest class with 2 new test to verify execution order with 2 worker threads
Keep track of active task mutexes in AbstractTaskPlanExecutor and honour them on determining next task to execute:

* introduce new MutexManager class: to thread-safe manage active task
mutexes during execution of a TaskExecutionPlan
* TaskExecutionPlan.getTaskToExecute(): add arg mutexManager
* DefaultTaskExecutionPlan: extract checking of "ready to execute"
conditions to new method + add a condition for claiming the mutex
* AbstractTaskPlanExecutor: keep one instance of MutexManager for all
worker threads
Merge branch 'RB_1.8' into 'master'
