[MNG-2971] Variables are not replaced into installed pom file

**[Laurent Dauvilaire](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=ldauvilaire)** opened **[MNG-2971](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-2971?redirect=false)** and commented

Variables are not replaced into installed pom file.
Here is a sample pom file

```xml

4.0.0
com.xxx.root
root
pom
${prop.version}
My Project
...

3.0.20

```

The installed pom is into ${localRepository}/com/xxx/root/root/3.0.20/root-3.0.20.pom
is the same as the project pom file but the version referenced into the installed pom file is ${prop.version} instead of 3.0.20
which creates problem to artifacts depending of this one.

Thanks in advance
