Pull request overview

Updates the project’s Gradle wrapper to 9.6.0 and aligns build/test infrastructure and documentation snippets with Gradle 9.6 / Kotlin DSL patterns, including enabling the new NO_IMPLICIT_LOOKUP_IN_PARENT_PROJECTS feature preview.

Changes:

• Bump Gradle Wrapper from 9.5.1 to 9.6.0.
• Enable NO_IMPLICIT_LOOKUP_IN_PARENT_PROJECTS in the main build and conditionally enable it in TestKit-generated settings for test runs on Gradle ≥ 9.6.0.
• Refresh Kotlin DSL examples and build script configuration to use register(...) / getByName(...) style APIs.
