Generate list of plugins and their versions used in a build

[aman kohli]

Hi,

For a build, I need to generate the plugins used and their versions.
Is there a way to do this?  Ideally something as simple as the
effective-pom mechanism would be great.

One mechanism would be to to use the plugin-registry, if there is a
way to auto generate that.
