GH-3570: Disable the generation of the Gradle metadata

Fixes #3570

The module file with the Gradle metadata cannot be published on Maven
Central, which causes issues for some people using a repository manager such
as Artifactory. If it doesn't return a 404 HTTP status, the build fails
instead of ignoring the module.

**Cherry-pick to `5.4.x` & `5.3.x`**
