What
Update how version is parsed for pom files in the 'jar file to dependency' logic to cater for characters that are valid
in version strings but encoded in the file path.
For example,
"+"
encoded as"%2B"
.The character is commonly used in semver version strings to add build metadata to the version. Per https://semver.org/
Why
Before this change
7.2.27+33-04a1ea9e-SNAPSHOT
version string was not handled consistently and would result in different values in the declared/used compile dependencies. This meant that the plugin was not usable for dependencies with build metadata in their version string.Fixes: #110
