patch

this enhancement is more or less http://mvnvm.org/ done right, in the IDE.

Based on <prerequisite> element or maven enforcer plugin configuration, try to guess the right version of maven binaries to use.

For prerequisites: use the version matching the pom
for enforcer plugin: when explicit ranges used, try find the highest known matching, otherwise exact match.

Once exact version is determined and not among known runtimes, attempt a download.


The attached patch includes the mechanism to choose and download the binaries and also UI in Tools/Options that enables the feature.

Please note that some related issues where users ask for maven per project could be solved by this, however it must be stated that he $M2_HOME/conf/settings.xml file is still the same within the IDE itself and might contribute to eventual mismatch between the IDE and the cmdline.
