idea: link to ibiblio on dependency page

[Henri Yandell <ba...@generationjava.com>]

It would be nice if the maven dependency page provided a link to the
repository that the dependency is available from.

When maven is running, it knows (or can know) the location it obtained the
jar from, so would be able to encode this in the generated site.

This has some issues though, so it might be simpler to just provide a
repository tag as a child to the dependency tag which uses ibiblio as the
default.

This would benefit users a lot I think. Save them hunting through the
sourceforge or apache mirror systems when ibiblio has the values [and is a
mirror for both] anyway.
