Gradle plugin version 1.12.11 doesn't seem to work with Gradle 7.3

When upgrading from 1.12.10 to 1.12.11, I was faced with this error from Gradle:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
A problem was found with the configuration of task ':foo:byteBuddy' (type 'ByteBuddyTask').
  - In plugin 'net.bytebuddy.byte-buddy-gradle-plugin' type 'net.bytebuddy.build.gradle.ByteBuddyTask' property 'discoverySet' has @Input annotation used on property of type 'FileCollection'.
    
    Reason: A property of type 'FileCollection' annotated with @Input cannot determine how to interpret the file.
    
    Possible solutions:
      1. Annotate with @InputFile for regular files.
      2. Annotate with @InputDirectory for directories.
      3. If you want to track the path, return File.absolutePath as a String and keep @Input.

As far as I could tell, it refers to this bit of code, though I don't know enough about the project and/or Gradle's plugin architecture to comment on the possible solutions suggested by Gradle itself.

Are there any suggested workarounds?

Indeed, could you build BB from master and see if the annotation change fixed the issue?

Reporting back after trying it out with 1.12.12-SNAPSHOT, it worked! At least I didn't get the error message.
