New features

• #3226: Populate completions metadata, making it possible to change the style of completion via completion-category-override or completion-category-defaults.

• Support Gradle jack-in via the Gradle wrapper (gradlew), instead of just a globally installed gradle on the PATH.
• Gradle projects can now inject dependencies and middleware as with other build tools (dependency injection requires Clojurephant 0.7.0 or higher).

Changes

• Upgrade clojure-mode to 5.15.1.
