Fixed lifecycle mapping metadata for m2e which previously resulted in spurious errors regarding the manifests

Bug 400992 - Allow local repository managers to query configuration properties during their creation

Fixed javadoc links

Added new config option to allow host app to override filename

Bug 400992 - Allow local repository managers to query configuration properties during their creation

Extended relevant factory methods to require a session object like pretty much everything else already does

Bug 400400 - Rework recording of pre-managed dependency attributes to reduce heap consumption for average case

Replaced DependencyNode.getPremanaged*() with getManagedBits() and made recording of pre-managed state optional which is now implemented via node custom data and utility methods in DependencyManagerUtils if the correspondig config property has been enabled

from _maven.repositories to _remote.repositories, with javadoc
enhancements

Made ConflictResolver derive optional flag from parent nodes and introduced OptionalitySelector hook to control resolution of conflicts among derived flags, with SimpleOptionalitySelector providing a reasonable default impl

used only for resolution tracking

o put tracking filename in TRACKING_FILENAME constant

Extended DependencyManagement to support control of optional flag and enhanced DefaultDependencyCollector and ClassicDependencyManager to make use of it. As a prerequisite, converted optional flag of Dependency from boolean to Boolean to support three-valued logic when inspecting managed dependencies.

Used LocationAwareLogger if supported by logging backend

Bug 394955 - DefaultDependencyCollector generates a very large graph which makes NearestVersionConflictResolver terribly slow

Avoided collecting dependencies for nodes which have an ancestor with the same conflict id, such nodes can never survive conflict resolution regardless of the employed strategy so are nothing but a waste of space and more importantly processing time

Bug 394955 - DefaultDependencyCollector generates a very large graph which makes NearestVersionConflictResolver terribly slow

Optimized hot spots in dependency collection process

Revised hooks in ConflictResolver to allow effecient proxy implementations to select an actual implementation based on the current context

Aligned IniArtifactDescriptorReader with standard Maven behavior and used only GAV for resource lookup

Fixed issues in IniArtifactDataReader (bad exclusions, bad GAV format doc, bad managed dependency scope)

Introduced AbstractForwardingRepositorySystemSession as base class for proxies/decorators

Considered root artifact for detail message of DependencyCollectionException
