Occasional error with ProjectBuilder and dependency resolution

[tbroyer]

Dependency resolution through ProjectBuilder randomly fails with a NoSuchFileException while updating the dependency cache.

Expected Behavior

No error.

Current Behavior

Occasional error.

Context

I'm trying to test dependency conflicts through capabilities using a ProjectBuilder. This involves resolving a configuration, and this randomly fails.

I reduced flakiness by reusing a single Gradle user home dir for all the tests, but it still fails from time to time.

Steps to Reproduce

See https://github.com/tbroyer/gradle-logging-framework-plugin/blob/7979e85399fe54cd3661fdf9dc1433d9f7ed53f4/src/test/kotlin/net/ltgt/gradle/logging/LoggingFrameworkPluginTest.kt
The plugin configures capabilities on several dependencies in order to cause conflicts; similar to #11300

Your Environment

Build scan URL: https://scans.gradle.com/s/5hchscj3kgfo6/console-log?task=:test#L266
This is the exact same code being built (I simply reran checks, on the same commit), and this time the test passes: https://scans.gradle.com/s/o44rs2bbcrmes
