can be overriden

@sormuras
The POM in platform provider contains `junit-platform-launcher`.
I think that Romain's problem is with existence of this dependency in the
provider classpath. I think it should have `<scope>provided</scope>`. Then the
dependency would not appear in the provider's classpath and the user has to add.
Another way would be more complicated for us but more user friendly for
user. Discover the `junit-platform-launcher` and it transitive dependencies in
dependencies and the algorithm would be complicated because it has to resolve
them. Basically it has to use the launcher and engine if specified; otherwise
use the one with version `1.2.0`. But this would lead to uncertain behavior
because the users would not clearly understand when to use it and when not in
certain versions.

Why on why people still use plugin dependencies since the plugin has its own
`ClassLoader` and has nothing to do with project dependencies.
