Could not find com.jetbrains.intellij.idea:ideaIC:2021.3.3

Describe the bug

I have tried to set up a fresh project, but I get an error.

I suspect this is either a problem with buildSrc, or the plugin not using the Gradle Providers API correctly (related to #1110), or centralised repository declarations

Expected behaviour

I am able to load the plugin without errors.

Environment:

• OS: macOS
• Gradle IntelliJ Plugin Version: 1.80 and 1.9.0
• Gradle Version: 7.5.1

I think it would be best to consistently the repositories {} block in build.gradle.kts or settings.gradle.kts, rather than adding the repos in the plugin code, ad-hoc. That way it will be more clear to users about what repos are available, and can be specifically configured if necessary.

What do you think about the following options?

1. Create a plugin option for "automatically add repository for X/Y/Z" that will disable automatically adding the repositories
2. Document the repositories, so users can add them manually

   Add the following to build.gradle(.kts)

     repositories {
       maven("...") { ... }
       ivy("...") { ... }
     }

   or settings.gradle(.kts)

   dependencyResolutionManagement {
     repositories {
       maven("...") { ... }
       ivy("...") { ... }
     }
   }

3. Add some extension functions to the Gradle plugin for handy short cuts for the repositories above ⬆
4. Create a Settings plugin IntelijGradleSettingsPlugin : Plugin<Settings> for making the same repository helpers in settings.gradle.kts

Implemented in 2.0.
It is possible to apply the org.jetbrains.intellij.platform.settings plugin in settings.gradle.kts, which also provides a set for repository helpers to let you add all necessary repositories to the project.
