[MDEP-616] New fuzziness to purge a version

Hi,

I would like to propose a patch in order to improve the dependency.purge-local-repository feature.

Let's say there are 2 branches with the same base version number pattern :
* develop : 3.X
* product : 3.2.X

If I run a purge-local-repository on the 3.2, the default fuzziness (version) will erase all the dependencies where the version number is 3.1 but also all the 3.2.X.

I need a way to delete the old versions of one branch without affecting the other.

**Affects:** 3.1.1

**Attachments:**
- [branch_fuzziness.patch](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/12925366/branch_fuzziness.patch) (_5.50 kB_)

Start by reading the MDEP-616 description and the attached branch_fuzziness.patch; the payload names no source file, test, or entry point. Done means allowing purge-local-repository to remove old versions from one branch without deleting dependencies from another branch sharing the base version pattern.
