This PR builds binaries for Mill using Graal VM native-image and adds Java/Scala/Kotlin examples for building native images.

Execution time for mill --version, with server running, shows over 5x improvement.

TBD:

  • Add Github actions for building and uploading binaries for different platforms.
  • Update bootstrap script to download platform specific binary.

Should the existing distribution assembly be retained?

@ajaychandran lets retain the existing assembly for now; we'll likely want to offer both runners for a while until we have confidence in the robustness of the nee one, and even then it would be nice to have a fallback (e.g. in OS/architectures the new one doesnt support)

Maybe, we should just use the mill.javalib package for the new modules and avoid any new type re-exports from scalalib and kotlinlib. @lihaoyi WDYT?

@lefou I think for now following the re-export convention is probably best, once we decide what to do in #3570 we may need to break compatibility in 0.13.0 anyway, but until then we should at least keep things consistent
