Introducing a plexus-utils3 package means we'll have to transition 75
packages depending on libplexus-utils-java and 7 packages depending on
libplexus-utils2-java to the new libplexus-utils3-java. And if we care
about the numbering consistency we'll would have to do this again when
plexus-utils 4 is released.

By simply upgrading the existing libplexus-utils-java package we end up
with only 7 packages to transition. This solution is much easier, and my
tests show that the risk of incompatibility is very low.
