To publish a Flatpak Linux package on Flathub, we need to build the application without network connectivity (offline build). The `flatpakGradleGenerator` task will generate a list of sources for dependencies, so they can be prefetched and used during the build via an offline repository.

I understand if this wasn't accepted here in upstream. I could just use a patch to generate the sources for packaging, but it would be cleaner to have it here and to keeps maintenance minimal.
It is useful for any type of offline builds,
flatpak-sources.jsonis easy to parse and do anything with, not a special and complicated format.
