[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (ELY-1523) Update the JAPICMP settings so that we only detect changes that break API compatibility

Farah Juma updated ELY-1523:
----------------------------
    Description: 
Currently, the JAPICMP settings will result in a build failure if new public API has been added. As we will be tagging .Final releases more regularly, we need to be able to allow new public API into a patch release so we should only be detecting changes that break API compatibility not changes that add new public API.  

As an example, try building the 1.2.1.Final tag (https://github.com/wildfly-security/wildfly-elytron/tree/1.2.1.Final). The build will fail due to new public API unless the -DskipCompatibility flag is passed in.
