Description

Currently Sling IDE requires the installation of m2e-tycho. This was being added in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-3608. Now that the maven-bundle-plugin ships with m2e support OOTB (FELIX-4009) we should get rid of that dependency.

This is also important since newer versions of the maven-bundle-plugin conflict with that extension (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-4009?focusedCommentId=15192263&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-15192263).
