Description

In our company's parent POM we define a lot of rules, some of which are controversial or may not be easily fulfilled. The patch I attach defines a new goal "recommend" which will always warn but never fail. It's configuration is done by a new element recommendations which just holds a sequence of rules.

I extracted most of EnforceMojo to AbstractEnforceMojo to avoid code duplication. I added an invoker test and all tests ran successfully.

See https://github.com/apache/maven-enforcer/pull/4 as well for easier review.
