Also bumps Forge itself to 1.12.2-14.23.5.2864.
The game starts now.
This reverts commit 04b6eda8a3b501ef793c0a177fe08a7139574d8a.
This is supposedly the latest version compatible with Java 8.
(v6 does not support Java 8)
MixinPlatformAgentFMLLegacy, which is shipped by CubicChunks and loads mixins in pre 1.13 FML environments, has some logic for dev-time runs that assumes ForgeGradle 2 (see MixinPlatformAfentFMLLegacy#isIgnoredReparseable()). This logic fails on ForgeGradle 3+ because the cache directory for deobfuscated dependencies has been renamed from deobfedDeps to deobf_dependencies, and Mixin looks for deobfedDeps in the resolved mod file path. Because it resolves the path before the check, we can trick it with symlinks, which is the workaround.

Running old toolchains is starting to be painful in modern IDEs (recently experienced issues with Intellij which I could only solve by updating the gradle wrapper). This PR updates the build toolchain.

Issues and workarounds
Minecraft 1.12.2 support in ForgeGradle 6 (or any other version higher than ForgeGradle 3), is a best attempt with no real support. It works well in simple cases but falls on it heads when you start adding things like dependencies to mods that load coremods, or even worse, Mixins. Bad news for us, we depend on CubicChunks.
