Review Comment:
   The only problem with this is that the maven-checkstyle-plugin often uses a 
very old version of checkstyle, so to be useful to users, they still often have 
to define the plugin to override the dependency, as in:
   
   ```xml
         <plugin>
           <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
           <artifactId>maven-checkstyle-plugin</artifactId>
           <dependencies>
             <dependency>
               <groupId>com.puppycrawl.tools</groupId>
               <artifactId>checkstyle</artifactId>
               <version>10.12.2</version>
             </dependency>
           </dependencies>
           <executions>
             <execution>
               <id>check-style</id>
               <goals>
                 <goal>check</goal>
               </goals>
               <configuration>
                 <!-- execution configuration here -->
               </configuration>
             </execution>
           </executions>
         </plugin>
   ```
