title: Failed to apply 'io.fabric' plugin on Android
body: <p>I'm trying to add Firebase Crashlytics.
  Firebase Crashlytics tutorial is very simple:
  <a href="https://firebase.google.com/docs/crashlytics/get-started?authuser=0" rel="noreferrer">https://firebase.google.com/docs/crashlytics/get-started?authuser=0</a></p>
  
  <p>I've already added repositories (in buildscript and in all projects), as well as classpath and implementation of dependency. All just like in the tutorial. But when I applying 'io.fabric' plugin (apply plugin: 'io.fabric') and pressing 'Sync' in Android Studio - next error is shown:</p>
  
  <pre><code>A problem occurred evaluating project ':app'.
  &gt; Failed to apply plugin [id 'io.fabric']
     &gt; No such property: verboseGradlePlugin for class: java.lang.String
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm applying plugin after "apply plugin: 'com.android.application'".<br>
  Tried to add Fabric plugin to Android Studio - didn't help.<br>
  Tried all plugin versions down to 1.24.0. (Current is 1.25.4)<br>
  Invalidated caches and restarted Android Studio.<br>
  Tried to add 'fabric.properties' file to app folder as well as 'crashlytics.properties' file.<br>
  Tried to pass -DverboseGradlePlugin=false or with 'true' to gradle's 'build' task.</p>
  
  <p>Gradle knows about 'io.fabric' plugin, but trying to find 'verboseGradlePlugin' property that is missing. I haven't found any info about such issue in the google.</p>
  
  <p>Maybe someone already faced the same problem or have any suggestions how to solve this?</p>
  
  <p>UPD:<br>
