I'm not interested in installing (deploying) a plugin into my
MAVEN_HOME.
I'm interested in modifying the source of an existing plugin, and
building it to see if it compiles, or create a new one.
There is a goal in the main maven.xml file named "maven:plugin-build"
with the description -> " Build a plugin by name from $${plugin.name}
into an installable jar "
This is exactly what I want to do (instead of "maven:plugins-build"
which builds all of them and takes time).
However, the current "maven:plugin-build" doesn't work (at least not in
my enviornment). The patch I submitted does. In addition, the patch I
submitted allows you to do it from the plugin-build/ directory (similar
to the existing goal "build-plugins")
