Title: Allows Jenkins administrator to define where to store Maven private

repositories in global configuration screen.
Default usage of private local repository can also be defined from
global administration screen

This enables the following use cases :
- have local repository per executor instead of per job workspace. It
takes less storage while remaining thread safe since there can be only
one instance of Maven running per executor.
One can specify m2repo/%{EXECUTOR_NUMBER} in the private repository
location field to do so.
- Relocation of private local repository to a separate place (with more
storage for instance)
