Do not run gradle-cache-action if project/repo does not use Gradle #102

Description

@mkurz

The Gradle Cache always runs, no matter if the project is using Gradle or not:
https://github.com/playframework/play-mailer/actions/runs/14854450285/job/41704377293#step:6:29

Even worse, if there is a problem, like timeout, it can take long time until the actions finishes:
https://github.com/sbt/sbt-web-build-base/actions/runs/15442013973/job/43461980655?pr=76#step:6:29

here it took more than 500 seconds...

Can we somehow skip the Gradle action with and if: ... condition? Not sure what we could use as condition, something like if repo does not contain a file named *.gradle.kts or *.gradle?

- name: Gradle Cache
uses: burrunan/gradle-cache-action@v3
with:
build-root-directory: ${{ inputs.gradle-build-root }}
# Disable caching of ~/.gradle/caches/build-cache-*
save-local-build-cache: false
# Disable caching of ~/.m2/repository/
save-maven-dependencies-cache: false
