Resolves mojohaus#289: Handle processParent in mojos which support it.

Also:
- added failIfNotReplaced to ForceReleasesMojo as a first steps towards converging with UseReleasesMojo
- enhanced documentation on UseReleasesMojo#allowRangeMatching
- streamlined UseReleasesMojo in order to converge it with ForceReleasesMojo and then fold further with other similar mojos
- added unit tests and integration tests
- some refactoring
