[MRELEASE-756] release:prepare ignores properties from settings.xml

Description

When I run release:prepare, then the properties defined in my maven settings.xml in an active profile are not taken in account during the build.

settings.xml

...
  <profile>
     <id>demo</id>
     <properties> 
         <test.url>jdbc:oracle:thin:@//java/xe</test.url>
     <properties> 
  <profile>

  <activeProfiles>
       <activeProfile>demo</activeProfile>
  </activeProfiles>
...

But the usage of "${test.url}" in the pom.xml (when running release:prepare) behaves like the property is not defined (it is not substituted).

But when using maven-release-plugin 2.2.1 the parameter is taken in account like expected.

I could not test, if release:perform has the same problem.
