Draft: Use Dependency management with Apache Ivy instead of physical jar-files

Vladimir V. Bychkov requested to merge bvfalcon/openbravo:ivy into master

Now project uses hardcoded jar-files of dependencies instead of any dependency management tool. This is bad for several reasons, f.e. :

  1. Absent or erroneous transitive dependencies artifacts (oh, human forgetfulness)
  2. Huge git-repository size

With this PR I propose the usage of Apache Ivy - Ant-oriented dependency management tool. It has a plugin for Eclipse IDE - IvyDE, which is accessible in Eclipse Marketplace and full functional for last versions of Eclipse too.

Applying of this PR makes unnecessary this wiki-page.
