Some of the older plugins (eg java and groovy plugins) have all their 
convention/extension properties documented in the user guide, but this is 
mainly because they predate the DSL guide, rather than any real need for them 
to be there. I think we instead want to move more of this reference stuff to 
the DSL guide.

So, I think we should add the reporting extension to the DSL guide, and either 
remove the reporting properties from the java/groovy user guide chapters or 
replace the old properties with the new properties in the user guide chapters. 
I don't think we need to document the deprecated properties in the user guide.

I don't think we need a chapter on reporting yet: there's one property, and it 
has a pretty reasonable default value.
