Version for spring-boot-maven-plugin must be set when Boot dependencies are added by

[fabapp2]

Describe the bug
The recipe initialize-spring-boot-migration must set the version for the spring-boot-maven-plugin to the current Spring Boot version.

To Reproduce
Run the recipe against a non-Spring application.
spring-boot-maven-plugin has no version.

<build>
        <plugins>
            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
                <artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                ...
           </plugin>    

Expected behavior
The version for spring-boot-maven-plugin should be explicitly set to the Spring Boot version used.

<build>
        <plugins>
            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
                <artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>${spring-boot.version}</version>
           </plugin>    

Additional context
When Spring Boot dependencies are imported using a dependencyManagement section instead of parent pom the version of plugins is not managed and must be explicitly set

Hey @fabapp2

I noticed that the test InitializeSpringBootMigrationRecipeIntegrationTest passes but it actually does not compare the migrated code and the expected code(empty-project). Are you aware of it? I can fix this as part of this issue

Hi @ahmedmq

thanks for this finding!
Maybe the tests need tests here ;)
I am more than happy if you could look into this.
Can we use #457 instead?
For better reference and review. I assigned you to it, hope that's ok?
