Description
Expected Behavior
ClojureNRepl should start on Gradle 8+
Current Behavior
It fails with the following:
* What went wrong:
An exception occurred applying plugin request [id: 'dev.clojurephant.clojure', version: '0.7.0']
> Failed to apply plugin class 'dev.clojurephant.plugin.common.internal.ClojureCommonPlugin'.
> Could not create task ':clojureRepl'.
> Could not create task of type 'ClojureNRepl'.
> org.gradle.api.tasks.compile.ForkOptions
Caused by: org.gradle.api.tasks.TaskInstantiationException: Could not create task of type 'ClojureNRepl'.

Caused by: java.lang.InstantiationError: org.gradle.api.tasks.compile.ForkOptions
at dev.clojurephant.plugin.clojure.tasks.ClojureNRepl.<init>(ClojureNRepl.java:30)
It looks like the offending call is here - ForkOptions is an abstract class now.
Looking at the 8.0 release notes, there's a section on some classes being made abstract, if that helps.
