Description
Problem:
Connecting to the question #145 , we cannot fetch dependency versions in when it is managed by dependencyManagement in the parent pom. I notice that there is a embedBuildProfileDependencies configuration which is mentioned in #138 . When we set it as true, the plugin will parse the profile but just works when activation is not "jdk" or "os". So it is still a problem when we want to use either of them. The key problem is that, when dealing with profile in a pom, the flatten-maven-plugin just copies the profile to effectivePom but not parse it.
Proposal:
Add a piece of code to parse the version of the dependencies in profile after creating the effectivePom which will be used in most of the flatten modes.
I personally use a straightforward method to solve the problem: when effectivePom is created, it has both dependencyManagement part and profile part. I write a code to go through both of their dependencies to find matches, if so, I will copy the version from dependencyManagement to the dependency in profile if it does not have a version.
I have tested it in different flatten modes and it always works, but I think it will be more stable if we can use existing functions in Java Maven.
