--------------------------------------------------------------
made maven-artifact.jar executable to test version parsing and comparison in
MNG-5730
we can now analyze the bug more easily:
{code}$ java -jar maven-artifact-3.2.4-SNAPSHOT.jar 6.1.0 6.1.0rc3 6.1H.5-beta
6.1.0
Display parameters as parsed by Maven, and comparison result:
1. 6.1.0 == 6.1
6.1.0 > 6.1.0rc3
2. 6.1.0rc3 == 6.1.0.rc.3
6.1.0rc3 > 6.1H.5-beta
3. 6.1H.5-beta == 6.1.h.5.beta
6.1H.5-beta > 6.1.0
4. 6.1.0 == 6.1{code}

> ComparableVersion's breaks contract for Comparable, in some edgecases the
