Introduced component OfflineController whose default implementation allows access to remote repos with certain protocols or hosts even in offline mode

Added new RepositoryOfflineException

Bug 391291 - Allow for querying version range details in interface 'org.eclipse.aether.version.VersionRange'

Introduced VersionRange.getLowerBound() and VersionRange.getUpperBound()

Bug 391102 - ArtifactResolutionException (and others RepositoryExceptions) are not actually serializable

Excluded fields with extended runtime information from serialization of exceptions

Moved update policy interpretation from UpdateCheckManager into dedicated UpdatePolicyAnalyzer component to ease maintenance and customization

* Was using platform encoding to write out the checksum files. The checksums should always be
  a subset of US-ASCII, so forcing encoding to US-ASCII.

* Class is final anyway, and the reference to TransferEventCatapult.this is never used.

Fixed EnhancedLocalRepositoryManager to register timestamped snapshot artifacts cached from remote repositories using their remote filename

Extracted DefaultRemoteRepositoryManager.getRepositoryConnector out into dedicated component RepositoryConnectorProvider

Merged DefaultRepositorySystemSession.set*Props() and set*Properties(), overload is not really necessary and causes more confusion than good

Refactored error caching to consequently query new ResolutionErrorPolicy extension point which allows to apply different policies for artifacts vs. metadata when needed

Downgraded maven-jar-plugin to version 2.3.2 to avoid https://github.com/sonatype/m2eclipse-extras/issues/10
