Name of the task `ktlint` and the extension `ktlint` collide about ktlint-gradle

[JLLeitschuh]

For the time:

tasks.getByName("ktlint")

should work I think.

I'm thinking of renaming the task to ktlintCheck. But this will necessitate releasing 2.0.0

This also works:

check.dependsOn tasks.ktlint

👍 for ktlintCheck. Thanks for the plugin.

Yeah this definitely causes failures for things like:

check.dependsOn ktlint

Thanks! I couldn't figure out the right way to do that.

I should really fix this.
