Quiet option for regex-property goal.

[garretwilson]

Could we get a <quiet> option for the regex-property goal? (Or better yet, don't provide output at all?)

For example I have something like this to drop any -SNAPSHOT to find out what the release version will be:

<plugin>
  <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
  <artifactId>build-helper-maven-plugin</artifactId>
  <executions>
    <execution>
      <id>set-project-release-version</id>
      <goals>
        <goal>regex-property</goal>
      </goals>
      <configuration>
        <name>project.releaseVersion</name>
        <value>${project.version}</value>
        <regex>-.*</regex>
        <failIfNoMatch>false</failIfNoMatch>
      </configuration>
    </execution>
  </executions>
</plugin>

If the project version is already the release, version, great! There's nothing to do. But build-helper-maven-plugin feels it just needs to tell me about it. "Hey, developer; you might be interested in knowing that your regular expression didn't match!" (I'm quoting from memory, so it might not be exact. 😅)

The message isn't an error. It's not even a warning. It's just clutter. (And the last thing I need in my build output is more clutter.) And I already told it <failIfNoMatch>false</failIfNoMatch>. We need a <beQuietAndKeepToYourselfIfNoMatch> option. 😁

Thanks!

Did a human decide this was not planned, or did a bot close this because no one looked at it to make a decision?

Would the team be open to a pull request?
