KARAF-4897 - Add an option to simplify bundle dependencies
This adds a simplifyBundleDependencies option to
GenerateDescriptorMojo, disabled by default, which drops bundle
dependencies from features if the bundles are included in "parent"
features. I.e. if feature A depends on bundle B and feature C, and
feature C also includes bundle B, then feature A will be reduced to
only depend on feature C, relying on the latter to supply bundle B.

> Project: Karaf
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Affects Versions: 4.0.8
> Reporter: Stephen Kitt
> Priority: Minor
>
> When using GenerateDescriptorMojo to generate feature XML descriptions, it
> would be nice to have an option to simplify dependencies where possible. By
> that I mean if feature a depends on feature b and bundle c, and feature b
> also includes bundle c, then feature a could be simplified to only depend on
> feature b. (Making this an option allows users to decide what to do — do they
> want explicit dependencies, or does it make sense for them to ride on the
> coat-tails of parent features?)
