Description

while creating an API for java tool in MSHARED-304, Maven core's Toolchain API is used: this makes maven-shared-utils dependant on Maven core.
Since maven-shared-utils is expected to be a fundamental utilities library, ideally which could replace plexus-utils, depending on Maven core will cause a chicken and egg issue, since Maven core should be able to use maven-shared-utils

for example, I'm working on MSHARED-562 and this dependency makes me think that I cannot let the new code in maven-shared-utils and create a dependency from Maven core on maven-shared-utils...
