[MNG-7353] Add support for "mvn pluginPrefix:version:goal"

[jira-importer]

Hervé Boutemy opened MNG-7353 and commented

currently, we can run a simplified 2 parts form ```
mvn wrapper:wrapper

but if we want to specify a version, we need to switch to full 4 prts form:

mvn org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-wrapper-plugin:3.1.0-SNAPSHOT:wrapper

it would be nice to be able to write 3 parts simplified ```
mvn wrapper:3.1.0-SNAPSHOT:wrapper

if ( isGoalSpecification( task ) )

// "pluginPrefix:goal" or "groupId:artifactId[:version]:goal"

we'll need to differentiate existing

groupId:artifactId:goal

from new

pluginPrefix:version:goal

and implement in

maven/maven-core/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/lifecycle/internal/MojoDescriptorCreator.java

Line 141 in 3599d34

public MojoDescriptor getMojoDescriptor( String task, MavenSession session, MavenProject project )

I don't know if it's easiest trying to differentiate:

• a groupId from a pluginPrefix (groupId contain dots but not pluginPrefixes?)
• or an artifactId from a version (version starts with a numeric, but it happens that artifactIds also, even if perhaps not plugin's artifactIds...)
