[MNG-5356] Make encrypt/decrypt logic pluggable

**[Anders Hammar](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=afloom)** opened **[MNG-5356](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-5356?redirect=false)** and commented

It would be good if Maven Core facilitated the encryption (and decryption) logic to be replaceable. Today's solution is very much hard-coded to the plexus logic.

This would make it possible for enterprise environments to re-use existing solutions, like for eg smart cards, for this. The default should be the current implementation though.
