Description

If you define a core extension in .mvn/extensions.xml which then can't be retrieved/found the build issues a warning and then continues leading to unexpected behaviour depending on the functionality provided by the extension.

If the extension is defined in the pom and not found the build fails. I would have expected it to fail when not found in the external extensions.xml file too as it's quite easy to miss the fact it failed to retrieve it.
