Motivation

Make Gradle repository resolution compatible with TrueOG Bootstrap by importing local repositories as file-based maven entries instead of relying solely on mavenLocal().
Support an override via the SELF_MAVEN_LOCAL_REPO system property with proper ~ expansion and validation.

Description

Added an explicit maven { url = uri("file://${System.getProperty("user.home")}/.m2/repository") } entry to prefer the user's ~/.m2/repository as a file-based repository.
Replaced the previous mavenLocal()-only lookup with System.getProperty("SELF_MAVEN_LOCAL_REPO") handling that expands leading ~, converts the path to a file(...), and registers it via maven { url = uri("file://${dir.absolutePath}") } when the directory exists.
When the SELF_MAVEN_LOCAL_REPO path is missing or not a directory the code logs an error and falls back to mavenLocal() to preserve previous behavior.
Modified file: settings.gradle.kts.

Testing

Ran ./gradlew help, which failed in this environment with Gradle reporting: What went wrong: 25.0.1 (build did not complete successfully).
No other automated tests were executed in this environment.
