Need to implement following:
* add flag to cache config to mark plugin as "sourceOnly" - think of checkstyle
* if there is a change in dependencies only (eg source code checksums not changed)), skip source only plugin
Open question:
* how to restore artifacts (if any) of skipped plugins

Research direction
Start by reading the cache configuration and plugin execution handling, then review the parent MBUILDCACHE-27 task for surrounding context. Done means defining how a plugin is marked sourceOnly, skipping it when only dependencies changed, and deciding how artifacts from skipped plugins are restored.
