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).

Files from an existing 'base' are now also transferred to the new

variant (but can then be removed with removeAllFiles()). This makes:

- The behavior more consistent (before everything was transferred

*except* for the files)

- The 'enrich plain ivy with variants' use case better as you do not

manually have to re-add the files that are already in the configuration

metadata

non-existing base is defined.

If the packaging indicated in a pom is not in the list of 'known

jar packagings', we assume that the artifact could have the extension

indicated by the packaging. We first test if that artifact exists

with a HEAD request, and only if it does not, we go for the 'jar'

artifact.

Since using a variant file rule disables this mechanism, we remove

such ambiguous artifacts from the modified artifact list to give users

the chance to explicitly state which artifact to expect in the rule

they add anyway.
