 * A specific artifact. In a nutshell, an artifact has identifying coordinates and optionally a file that denotes its
 * data. Note: Artifact instances are supposed to be immutable, e.g. any exposed mutator method returns a new
 * artifact instance and leaves the original instance unchanged. Note: Implementors are strongly advised to
 * inherit from {@link AbstractArtifact} instead of directly implementing this interface.
 *
 * @noimplement This interface is not intended to be implemented by clients.
 * @noextend This interface is not intended to be extended by clients.
