Description

Similar to dependency:analyze-duplicate we could provide a maven goal that checks for duplicate dependencies in the nar dependency tree. This could be useful to find dependencies at the top of the tree which can set to provided scope and reduce the size of nar files.

We could also check if a jar dependency is already present in the lib folder, which is a bit harder but seems completely doable.
