The previously used approach of
project(':smack-core').sourceSets.test.runtimeClasspath
caused the 'eclipse' target to produce duplicate classpath entries in
.classpath when run with Gradle >= 2.6. It also relied on Gradle
internals.
Instead we now use
project(path: ":smack-core", configuration: "testRuntime")
project(path: ":smack-core", configuration: "archives")
to be able to use test classes from other subprojects (usually
smack-core) in e.g. smack-extensions. The 'archives' configuration
includes the test jar.

Thanks to Lari Hotari for helping with this issue.
This commit marks an important milestone with the addition of the
smack-android subproject. Smack is now able to run native on Android
without requiring any modifications, which makes the aSmack build
environment obsolete.
It was necessary to redesign the code for SASL authentication to achieve
this. Smack now comes with smack-sasl-provided for SASL implementations
that do not rely on additional APIs like javax for platforms where those
APIs are not available like Android.
