Add removeCritical option to the RemoveLocalArtifactMojo
--------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MBUILDHELPER-25
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MBUILDHELPER-25
             Project: Maven 2.x Build Helper Plugin
          Issue Type: New Feature
    Affects Versions: 1.5
         Environment: Windows, Java 6, Maven 2.2.1
            Reporter: Anthony Whitford
         Attachments: RemoveLocalArtifactMojo-removeCritical.patch

My corporate parent pom has a step to run 
{{build-helper:remove-project-artifact}} which helps avoid local repositories 
from growing out of control.

Occasionally, my continuous integration server fails when two projects are 
building at the same time that have a dependency.  For example, Project A 
depends on Project B, and if Project B is trying to remove its artifact(s) 
while Project A is building, then the step fails.  The failures are a nuisance.

I propose adding a {{removeCritical}} flag to the {{RemoveLocalArtifactMojo}} 
that can control whether a failure is critical or not.  In my case, I would 
like to _try_ and run the cleanup, but if it fails, a warning is OK and I'd 
like Maven to just continue...  (After all, it may be successful on a follow up 
build.)
