Calculating test optimization data before the build starts

Based on analysis done for #44 we realized that calculating anything related to test execution from within surefire-provider
is too late, as it will be recalculated for each and every module. Therefore we should try to pre-calculate all relevant data based on user's selected criteria for ordering tests before the build starts.
Maven offers a mechanism for this - Lifecycle Extensions
By implementing out our MavenLifecycleParticipant
we can achieve following:
- pre-calculate all needed data before build actually starts (by hooking to
#afterSessionStart()
- collect all relevant data to be send (by hooking to
#afterSessionEnd()
- attach our configuration dynamically instead of asking user to adjust their pom - this way we can provide seamless experience. This can be achieved by manipulating
MavenSession
object inafterSessionStart
hook.
