[MPMD-242] RFE: Option to apply different rules for main and test sources

**[Mitth'raw'nuruodo](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=thrawnca)** opened **[MPMD-242](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MPMD-242?redirect=false)** and commented

Main code and test code often have different quality requirements. For example, if you're using a test framework and a mocking framework and maybe Hamcrest on top of that, it's normal to have lots of static imports - but you wouldn't want that in main code. It's also normal, even desirable, to have lots of test cases, which trips the rule about excessive methods in a class. And the Design ruleset probably isn't all that important for test sources.

It would be nice to be able to configure different rulesets for main code and test code.
