[#GRADLE-3547] Error opening jacocoagent.jar

See https://discuss.gradle.org/t/error-opening-jacocoagent-jar-due-to-long-path-to/19250

When ‘jacoco’ plugin is applied for all subproject in my multiproject build

subprojects {
apply plugin: 'jacoco'
}

gradle test failed with the error like this one:

:my.long.subproject.name:test

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':my.long.subproject.name:test'.
> Process Gradle Test Executor 2 finished with non-zero exit value 1

I've found that Gradle starts 'Gradle Test Executor' processes using commands like this one:

java.exe -Djava.security.manager=worker.org.gradle.process.internal.worker.child.BootstrapSecurityManager -javaagent:../../build/components/my.long.subproject.name/tmp/expandedArchives/org.jacoco.agent-0.7.6.201602180812.jar_29dabwwwl4sb8maj0h13tor2d/jacocoagent.jar=destfile=../../build/components/my.long.subproject.name/jacoco/test.exec,append=true,inclnolocationclasses=false,dumponexit=true,output=file,jmx=false -Xms256m -Xmx1024m -Dfile.encoding=windows-1251 -Duser.country=US -Duser.language=en -Duser.variant -ea -cp C:\Users\Vital_Lobachevskij\.gradle\caches\2.14\workerMain\gradle-worker.jar worker.org.gradle.process.internal.worker.GradleWorkerMain 'Gradle Test Executor 2'

It works in the same way for all subprojects. But, if the subproject name is rather long, e.g. ‘my.long.subproject.name’, Gradle can’t open jacocoagent.jar. On my local, full path to this jar for ‘my.long.subproject.name’ is
d:\Projects\...\build\components\my.long.subproject.name\tmp\expandedArchives\org.jacoco.agent-0.7.6.201602180812.jar_29dabwwwl4sb8maj0h13tor2d\jacocoagent.jar (179 chars) and the error is thrown.
If I move project folder to the root of disk D, the full path will be shorter (156 chars) and unit tests are passed successfully and code coverage is generated.
