             Summary: Make analyzers report more context about issues and make it possible to filter reports.
                 Key: SLING-9823
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-9823
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Feature Model Analyser
    Affects Versions: Feature Model Analyser 1.3.8
            Reporter: Karl Pauls
            Assignee: Karl Pauls
             Fix For: Feature Model Analyser 1.3.10


Currently, an analyser task just reports a string (either as error or warning) - we should add new methods to AnalyserTaskContext for reporting error/warning. 

These methods should take an ArtifactId and a string or an extension name and a string (something like reportArtifactError(ArtifactId, String)...reportExtensionError(String, String) ) 

This way the analysers can provide more context about a warning/error and we can display them later per artifact instead of a long list. With that we have three types of errors: global (just the string), per artifact id, per extension name - the analyser tasks could be updated to use the new methods where appropriate. Similar, we add new methods to AnalyserResult getting those three types of errors/warnings - and deprecate the two existing ones. They would be changed to return all errors/warnings - so everything would be compatible.

The final piece is ignoring errors/warnings for certain artifacts. If we do the changes as mentioned above - the scanner/analyser does not need to know anything about whether something is ignored. We can handle this in the maven plugin. 

We have two options here: either we make this a configuration of the plugin - or we allow that metadata property is added to an artifact in the feature model telling the plugin to not report errors/warnings for this artifact.
