Migrate build system to Gradle

What do you think of migrating the build system to Gradle?
It would simplify testing the isolated modules, and it would manage dependencies better.
For instance: I try to add JUnit5 support. I create junit-quickcheck-junit5 Maven module.
However, if I execute cd runner-junit5; mvn test, then I get the following error:
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-checkstyle-plugin:2.17:check (default) on project junit-quickcheck-junit5: Failed during checkstyle execution: Unable to find configuration file at location: /Users/vladimirsitnikov/Documents/work/junit-quickcheck/runner-junit5/conf/src-checkstyle.xml: Could not find resource '/Users/vladimirsitnikov/Documents/work/junit-quickcheck/runner-junit5/conf/src-checkstyle.xml'. -> [Help 1]
It is frustrating.
@visi I'm certainly open to doing this. The current builds lean on Maven plugins quite a bit; as long as there are suitable replacements, sounds good to me.
Well, the build seems trivial, however, maven-project-info-reports-plugin and maven-site-plugin would likely take a while to reimplement in Gradle :-/
It might be fun to keep pom.xml for site purposes only.
@pholser if no one is working on it. I would like to take this up.
@viveksb007 You're welcome to take a crack at it. Thanks!
