Some 0.6 related work

Hi, I have reworked the docs of the apache-rat-plugin today. Seemed to me to be a prerequisite for 0.6. I have also moved several slow plugins to the release profile. This means, that they aren't invoked usually, unless you use the -Prelease parameter when invoking Maven. (Which you need to do
