   This extension implements RRF as explained on Maven site:
   https://maven.apache.org/resolver/remote-repository-filtering.html
   
   Prefix files are published by repositories, come examples:
   https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/.meta/prefixes.txt
   
https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/snapshots/.meta/prefixes.txt
   https://repo.eclipse.org/content/repositories/tycho/.meta/prefixes.txt
   etc
   
   In short: prefix file contains "file prefixes" that layout laid down 
artifacts have in given repository. It is not 100% match, that if prefix is 
present, artifact is there, but in turn, is 100% match if prefix is not present 
in given repository, for sure the artifact is not either. For example, Eclipse 
Tycho prefix file contains one relevant entry `org/eclipse`, saying "I have 
something under "org.eclipse...." group ID (does not say what exactly, it is 
org.eclipse.tycho), but FOR SURE that com.google artifacts are NOT present in 
that repo.
