We have completed the work to move the gfsh code into a separate gradle
submodule. This work has the following implications and effects:

   - geode-core does not have any direct dependencies on Spring libraries
   anymore
   - Anyone building with Geode will need to include the '*geode-gfsh'*
   dependency in order to use gfsh commands. This is relevant to anyone using
   Spring Boot (or Spring Data Geode) to launch locators or servers.
   - The Geode distribution (*.zip/.tgz) still includes all necessary libs
   required to use gfsh (i.e. Spring libraries)
   - There is no change for users using the 'gfsh' utility directly to
   launch locators and servers since the *gfsh-dependencies.jar* still
   contains all necessary references to Spring, etc.

Please let us know if you discover any issues related to this work.

Thanks
-- Jens & Patrick
