Port the dogfood feature from Gradle to Maven

It would be handy if you could contribute to any Eclipse project by doing mvn equo-ide:launch and get an IDE setup for that project.

It would also be handy if you could build a new IDE plugin, and then add it to your launched IDE as you build it for easy dogfooding. This is possible right now in our Gradle plugin like so

equoIde {
  jdt()
  dogfood() // compile this project, then add it to the launched IDE

This feature in Gradle was implemented like so

It would be great to support this for the maven plugin as well.
