Capture dependency resolver

[dgarijo]

In systems like python, or Java, we don't capture the dependency resolver.

For example, is conda the resolver, or does it go against pypi?

Is it maven central or is it jitpack?

We should think about this for the next release.

Currently, dependency_type is already being used beyond the Conda environment parser. It is also present in the parsers for bower, composer, gemspec, publiccode, cabal and all toml-based formats (cargo, pyproject, etc.).

At the moment, its primary purpose is to distinguish the role of the dependency (dev - runtime).

The dependency type is a different thing. For each dependency, we may have to distinguish:

• name (e.g., pytest)
• version (e.g. 1.0.0)
• dependency_type (e.g., dev, run)
• resolver (e.g., conda, pypi, jitpack, maven central)
