Ok I am a step further now and have it running, and I think I know what the
problem is.
First of all, I confirm that "Use default maven global settings" is working
very well and it effectively leads to using the configured global
settings.xml provided by the Config File Provider plugin.
Also I confirm that the option "provided settings.xml" is working well and
it effectievely leads to using the configured settings.xml provided by the
Config File Provider plugin -- but that one has to be told in each and
every Maven job description! :-(
What not work is "Use default maven settings". It leads to the fact that
Jenkins still is using a "vanilly" Maven config instead of the settings.xml
provided by the Config File Provider plugin. And it looks like this is a
known "limitation" (I would say: "bug") of that plugin.
