Always execute Gradle with --no-daemon

The Gradle daemon is not useful for ephemeral builds, and the process
can hold file locks which interfere with cache entry generation.

In the case where multiple Gradle invocations occur in the same job,
we could provide a way for users to override this behaviour, taking care
of stopping any daemon process at the end of the job.
