I have submitted a new feature which allows a configuration to return

The names need to reflect that you want the files from the
configuration, filtered to just those required by the specified
dependencies.
configuration.filter(someSpec)
configuration.subset(someSpec)
configuration.forDependencies(someSpec)
I'd be tempted to get rid of the files(someSpec) methods. To me, they
don't feel like they are worth the weight they add to Configuration.
Some places where we should use this method:
- The code in AntTestNGExecute which goes looking for the testng jar. It
should get the files for the testng dependency instead.
- The groovy configuration. We should merge this into the compile
configuration, and get the files for the groovy dependency instead.
- The 'ide' tasks in our build files.
