Pull request overview

This PR addresses issue #327 by ensuring Maven Central is prioritized ahead of ModDevGradle-managed repositories, preventing Gradle from “sticking” to the NeoForged Maven Central mirror when some artifact classifiers (e.g., *-interfaceinjection.json) are missing.

Changes:

• Reorders Maven Central to be inserted before managed repositories during project/settings evaluation.
• Adds functional tests verifying Maven Central precedes the managed repositories in both project and settings contexts.

This slows down resolution of our artifacts, so I am not terribly convinced. The more correct solution is to filter the NeoForge repository to serve just our artifacts via content filtering.
