Phase 0: scaffold Gradle multi-project mod skeleton

common/ (shared source) plus three leaf modules: forge-1_12_2 (primary,
Enigmatica 2 target) and forge-1_7_10 both build via anatawa12's
Gradle-7-compatible ForgeGradle 1.2/2.3 forks (verified: both leaves build
clean on Gradle 7.6 / JDK 8). neoforge-26_1 is structurally scaffolded but
excluded from the default build pending its own toolchain in Phase 10.
