Improve caching of artifacts using new Transport#downloadArtifact
trafficstars
Currently Tycho maintain different caches, e.g. some items are cached in the local maven repository, some are cached in the transport caches and there is even a P2 remote cache maintained. Apart from that, P2/PDE/Ooomph also maintain so called bundle pools.
With the new Transport#downloadArtifact method we now have an opportunity to merge all these caches in a reliable way just using the artifact that is already there saving both downloads times and disk space.
