Description

Currently we offer following values for maven.plugin.validation:

• BRIEF - emits one liner WARN with count of plugins having validation issues (IF count > 0)
• DEFAULT - emits one line for each plugin GAV having validation issues
• VERBOSE - emits detailed report for each plugin (declaration, use and problems) for each plugin having validation issue

We should introduce more:

• NONE - mute validation (usable on CI where plethora of WARNING lines could lead to falsely detect build as unhealthy)
• INLINE - produce validation WARNs inline, as 3.9.1 did
