Fixes #3522

Adds support for parsing Gradle .module metadata files.
This introduces a new GradleModuleHandler to extract package and dependency information from Gradle Module Metadata (formatVersion: 1.1) files published to Maven repositories.
Changes:
Added src/packagedcode/gradle.py
Parses .module JSON metadata safely
Extracts:
component group
module name
version
Extracts dependencies from variants[].dependencies[]
Deduplicates dependencies appearing across multiple variants
Handles empty string values safely by converting them to None before PackageURL creation
Registered the handler in:
src/packagedcode/init.py
Added tests and fixtures:
tests/packagedcode/test_gradle_module.py
tests/packagedcode/data/gradle/module/
Notes:
This implementation also addresses review feedback from #4808 by:
relying on DatafileHandler behavior instead of redundant is_datafile() logic
avoiding crashes caused by empty namespace/version values during PackageURL construction
