We can update the Solr plugin to connect with an external Solr instance
instead of running it embedded. I believe no one uses Solr in embedded mode
in production,
so it's best to treat Solr as an external system.
With the Solr plugin update, we can configure it to communicate with an
external Solr instance.
To make it developer-friendly, we can also provide a Gradle task to
download and run Solr in the development environment.
