Use the offical RCMS GitLab project and the supported gradle build system

[lpetre-ulb]

Brief summary of issue

The newer version of RCMS and the function managers are now being developed in the official RCMS GitLab project. Moreover, the build system moved from ant(?) to gradle with possibilities of continuous integration.

We should follow the changes to get full support and compatibility. The changes required for porting from ant to gradle are really small. We need to ask to get our own repository under cms-rcms/funcionmanagers though. Who should we contact?

Types of issue

• Bug report (report an issue with the code)
• Feature request (request for change which adds functionality)

Expected Behavior

Be hosted on the central RCMS project and use a supported build system.

Current Behavior

Hosted on GitHub and use an unsupported build system.

Context (for feature requests)

Moving to the future (or the present :-)

The alternative was just to have Hannes create a new project for GEM and start from scratch and I didn't yet decide whether that's a better long-term solution or not (I can push everything related to migration to gradle right now)

I would opt to start from scratch. The current examples in GitLab are really good and have a very clear structure.
