Description

Given an archetype descriptor with:

<requiredProperties>
    <requiredProperty key="example-prop">
      <defaultValue>Hi</defaultValue>
    </requiredProperty>
</requiredProperties> 

 when you run `mvn verify` to run the integration test, it fails with:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-archetype-plugin:3.2.1:integration-test (default-integration-test) on project demo:
[ERROR] Archetype IT 'it1' failed: Missing required properties in archetype.properties: example-prop
[ERROR] -> [Help 1]
[ERROR] 

Only after adding the property to the archetype.properties with a value, it will continue to run the test.

It would be nice if the default values were inserted instead, unless specified otherwise.
