[jbosstools-dev] JBoss Tools Core 4.4.0.Final bits available for QE testing

[Nick Boldt]

Since the org.eclipse.core.runtime.compatibility
3.2.300.v20150423-0821 plugin exists in
http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/requirements/birt/4.5.0.v201510231925/plugins/
it can now be accessed when installing Teiid 10.0.0.Beta3 from the
Mars-based Integration Stack sites.

Therefore it doesn't need to be in the 4.60.0.Final-SNAPSHOT target
platform for JBT 4.4.0.Final / 10.0.0.GA, and I've re-removed it.

The patchfix to the IS 4.3.x / 9.x EA composite sites (adding a child
site link to http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/requirements/birt/4.5.0.v201510231925
) allows the old Mars-based Teiid 10.0.0.Beta3 to be installable on
all of JBT 4.3.x/4.4.0, devstudio 9.x/10.0.0.

Eventually, I would hope that something newer than Teiid
10.0.0.Beta3-v20160218-1807-B4076 will be updated to NOT depend on the
runtime.compatibility plugin. (Seems surprising that after *nearly 4
months* the latest is only a Beta3.)

But updating Teiid Designer no longer blocks the release of JBT
4.4.0.Final / devstudio 10.0.0.GA.
