Description

With SLING-11395 we can automatically run the Starter ITs for a given module if the parent version is >= 49.

We should take this one step further and allow this to be configured in the Sling module descriptor. Proposed syntax:

{
  "starterITExecutions": {
     "12": {
          "jdks": [11]
       }
  }
}

It would be very useful to only run the Starter ITs and reuse the artifacts that were previously generated instead of rebuilding/retesting, since that was already done in previous stages. The reused artifacts should be those of the "main" JDK.
