Related to #2008 which was reverted in #2018 because it affected non-artifactory servers negatively (in an unknown way).
This change adds an alternative variant of tryGetAllVersions to fetch the versions in descending order (by publish date) instead of modifying the original one.
GetVersions chooses to use the alternative variant in case the source URI contains the string "artifactory". This is a very unreliable way of discovering a server to be an artifactory one, but is in line with the existing rules and should prevent affecting non-artifactory servers.
Ideally the decision should be more controllable than URI matching, e.g. by introducing the concept of source options (explicitly in the dependencies and lock files).
