MENFORCER-241 allow ignoring minor and patch level mismatches
this patch allows `dependencyConvergence` to only consider major and minor
version changes by introducing a new `degree` parameter. This patch maintains
backward compatibility but deprecates the `uniqueVersions` parameter.
usage:
```xml
<rules>
<dependencyConvergence>
<!-- one of MAJOR, MINOR, PATCH (default), UNIQUE (uniqueVersions=true)
-->
<degree>MAJOR</degree>
</dependencyConvergence>
</rules>
```
therefore these two are equal to maintain backward compatibility:
```xml
<rules>
<dependencyConvergence>
<degree>UNIQUE</degree>
</dependencyConvergence>
</rules>
<!-- equal -->
<rules>
<dependencyConvergence>
<uniqueVersions>true</uniqueVersions>
</dependencyConvergence>
</rules>
```

> sometimes it is acceptable to allow some degree of version mismatches. For
> instance, if an artifact follows [semantic versioning
> rules|http://semver.org/] it is acceptable to allow patch level mismatches
> (bug fixes) or even minor level mismatches (added backward compatible
> functionality).
> This new feature could somehow replace the current {{uniqueVersions}} flag
> which pretty much does the same thing to a lesser degree
