Let's hope that someone using Windows will provide something similar as a batch file :-)

We should do as much as possible to make it easy for users to get started. So we should provide proper documentation for a manual download/install as well as convenience scripts where possible.

> Following the discussion at http://markmail.org/message/nd7grfiyobjkfwae, considering LEGAL-288 and based on a lazy consensus on dev ML, we want to remove the gradle-wrapper.jar file from the next packaged releases and  use [~jacopoc]'s related proposition to document how to have Gradle working in the main README.md file.
> # Extract the archive file to your local directory.
> # Download gradle-wrapper.jar and place it in the OFBiz-root-dir/gradle/wrapper folder.
> I'm not sure if we should recommend a link to download the gradle-wrapper.jar. This might change in the future (versions, etc.), so indeed maybe simply asking to download is enough, cf  https://www.google.com/search?q=gradle-wrapper.jar+download&ie=UTF-8
> Also we need to add a point about removing gradle-wrapper.jar in https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/Release+Management+Guide+for+OFBiz
