Kotlin plugin's version shouldn't be read if the kotlin.version extra property has been set

[wilkinsona]

We read it at the moment and then don't use it if kotlin.version has been set. This is slightly wasteful and prevents setting kotlin.version from being a workaround for problems like #26864.

@wilkinsona is this expected in 2.5.2 too?

@materemias all fixes are merged forward obviously, see the reference to #26947 above your comment.
