* gradle plugin: arguments support for launch* tasks
These changes allows to pass arguments to application, when launching it on device/simulator similar to arguments field in Idea run/debug configuration. Beside debug/specific cases this is also required to enable debug mode of Crashlytics: https://firebase.google.com/docs/crashlytics/test-implementation?platform=ios
Custom commands are supported since Gradle v5.
Usage as simple as: ./gradlew launchIPhoneSimulator --info --args "'hello world'"
String passed in --args is then tokenized into individual arguments, e.g. --args="one two" will produce two arguments in args array ["one", "two"], if spaces to be considered as part of argument, quotation to be used.
Gradle also propagate option description to help command:
./gradlew help --task launchIPhoneSimulator
> Task :help
