Description

The functionality added in MPLUGIN-417 requires linking to javadoc class pages. In order to distinguish multiple javadoc site sources it needs access to the following methods:

1. https://github.com/apache/maven-javadoc-plugin/blob/231316be785782b61d96783fad111325868cfa1f/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/plugins/javadoc/JavadocUtil.java#L1694
2. https://github.com/apache/maven-javadoc-plugin/blob/231316be785782b61d96783fad111325868cfa1f/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/plugins/javadoc/JavadocUtil.java#L1818

which help evaluating the package-list / element-list provided by a javadoc generated site.
