Gradle plugin allows the use of Gradle 7.4 but the documented and tested minimum is 7.5

I think we missed to adapt org.springframework.boot.gradle.plugin.SpringBootPlugin#verifyGradleVersion. It still reads:

	private void verifyGradleVersion() {
		GradleVersion currentVersion = GradleVersion.current();
		if (currentVersion.compareTo(GradleVersion.version("7.4")) < 0) {
			throw new GradleException("Spring Boot plugin requires Gradle 7.x (7.4 or later). "
					+ "The current version is " + currentVersion);
		}
	}
