refactor: tighten up maven-plugin-builder pom for approachibility and maintenance
What does this MR do?
Tightens up the build/gemnasium-maven/utils/maven-plugin-builder/pom.xml. This is includes refactoring plugin versions to properties to make maintenance and updates easier, including taking advantage of DRY, i.e., update the plexus-utils version in one spot. Remove the plugins declared as dependencies (this is a common misunderstanding of the difference between a dependency (classpath) and plugin (functionality). Move all plugins to project build pluginManagement for maintenance approachability. This may also incrementally improve the build times.
