/**
 * A dependency graph transformer that resolves version and scope conflicts among dependencies. For a given set of
 * conflicting nodes, one node will be chosen as the winner and the other nodes are removed from the dependency graph.
 * The exact rules by which a winning node and its effective scope are determined are controlled by user-supplied
 * implementations of {@link VersionSelector}, {@link ScopeSelector}, {@link OptionalitySelector} and
 * {@link ScopeDeriver}.
 * <p>
 * By default, this graph transformer will turn the dependency graph into a tree without duplicate artifacts. Using the
 * configuration property {@link #CONFIG_PROP_VERBOSE}, a verbose mode can be enabled where the graph is still turned
 * into a tree but all nodes participating in a conflict are retained. The nodes that were rejected during conflict
 * resolution have no children and link back to the winner node via the {@link #NODE_DATA_WINNER} key in their custom
 * data. Additionally, the keys {@link #NODE_DATA_ORIGINAL_SCOPE} and {@link #NODE_DATA_ORIGINAL_OPTIONALITY} are used
 * to store the original scope and optionality of each node. Obviously, the resulting dependency tree is not suitable
 * for artifact resolution unless a filter is employed to exclude the duplicate dependencies.
 * <p>
 * This transformer will query the keys {@link TransformationContextKeys#CONFLICT_IDS},
 * {@link TransformationContextKeys#SORTED_CONFLICT_IDS}, {@link TransformationContextKeys#CYCLIC_CONFLICT_IDS} for
 * existing information about conflict ids. In absence of this information, it will automatically invoke the
 * {@link ConflictIdSorter} to calculate it.
