Thats fine with me... just put it into branches/1.1... no need to
have a separate tree under devtools for this.

How / when will it be released if I put it in branches/1.1 ?
It uses m2 and the 1.1 branch uses m1, so the release process
will have to include that. 

There are still some changes that need to be made to the car plugin
to better support accessing dependencies, and additional metadata for
them (which we are over loading dependency/scope with currently) as
well as the ensure the proper classpath when deploying, since it
looks like the m2 plugin dependency system pollutes the classpath of
all plugins.

But, its probably fine to take the car-maven-plugin asis now and
branch it into branches/1.1 and update the dependency information to
point at 1.1 artifacts and just leave it like that.

With a few classes added and some stuff commented, it seems to work.
At least I can build my plugins with it, so it's a good start.
