Description

The ArtifactFilter is not that efficient: it will filter Artifact after all the files have been downloaded. Aether has the option to pass filters, which will first decide is a certain artifact should be downloaded or not.
Since there are now already 2 implementations, we need a mechanism which can transform these filters to the right Aether implementation.
