Support reference URLs [PAXEXAM-255]

[ops4j-issues]

Harald Wellmann created PAXEXAM-255

The reference: protocol which is now supported by the latest snapshots of Pax URL and Pax Runner shall now be enabled in Pax Exam.

This should require no changes other than upgrading the dependency versions.

In addition, there should be a regression test suite dealing with reference: bundles, both in JAR and in exploded formats.
