Attempt to resolve configured artifact in remote repositories prior to download #4

Attempt to resolve configured artifacts in remote repositories before 
downloading and installing one that may override a publicly hosted artifact.

Implemented.

Before attempting the download of an externally configured artifact, the plugin 
will 
now attempt to resolve the artifact in the local and remote repositories.  If 
the 
plugin was able to resolve the artifact in an existing repository, then there 
is no 
need to download it as the maven dependency resolver will resolve prior to 
compile.  
The purpose of this plugin is to download dependencies that cannot be resolved 
in 
existing repositories, not to somehow supersede the default Maven artifact 
resolution 
workflow.
