Description

Hi, I cannit find out how to silence warnings when the add-third-party goal is run.

I have a project with a dependency lacking license information. When add-third-party runs on this project i creates a warning. So far so good. As it’s not acceptable i add the failOnWarning to be sure that the build breaks on missing licenses.

Then i fix. I add a missing file (THIRD-PARTY.properties) and declare the license. Works fine, the project does not fail anymore, but tge warning is still shown. Can it be muted when it actually is adressed?

Best regards

Research direction
Look at other Mojo implementations in this plugin to understand how they handle warnings. Add a 'quiet' parameter to the add third party Mojo and conditionally suppress warning log messages.
