Nagging for this deprecation will only start with 6.1 to ease

the migration from 'force' to 'strictly'.

This is more clearly communicating the semantics of the feature

from a users point of view.

The commit also removes all mentions of 'inheriting' AND 'forSubgraph'.

There have been some leftovers in documentation/comments that

will be misleading in the future. To make sure we catch all,

I also updated all variable/method/package names.

This commit deprecates using `force` in favor of using the

new "strictly" behavior. The "force" flag is still used

internally, in particular in case of virtual platforms, but

its usage should be discouraged as we have a solution which

is better now.

This commit removes a dedicated `forSubgraph` flag

on version constraints, so that it is _implied_ by

strict version constraints. This simplifies the behavior

of `strictly`, making it closer to the intuitive semantics,

while maintaining the ability to fail the build if a

consumer brings an incompatible version in the graph.

As a consequence, _strict dependencies_ now express that

the producer preference overrides whatever is found in

its own dependency graph. It is closer to the "nearest

first" semantics of Maven, while not having its drawbacks

(ordering in particular).
