Plugin installer always wants to install the latest version for plugin dependencies

[ChrisRamsayITV]

Describe the bug
The plugin installer always wants to install the latest plugin dependency version rather than the version I have specified

Version of Helm and Kubernetes:

Helm Version: 3.3.4
Kubernetes Version: v1.18.9-eks-d1db3c
Kubectl version: v1.17.14

Which version of the chart: 3.1.0

What happened:
When installing plugins via controller.installPlugins, eg:

  installPlugins:
    - slack:2.0.1
    - ace-editor:1.1
    - active-directory:2.13
    - ansicolor:0.6.2
    - ant:1.11
   ...

the init container always seems to try to fetch the latest plugin version:

disable Setup Wizard
remove all plugins from shared volume
download plugins
Plugin slack:2.0.1 depends on junit:1.48, but there is an older version defined on the top level - junit:1.44

v2.0.1 of the slack plugin defines junit 1.3 as minimum: https://github.com/jenkinsci/slack-plugin/blob/slack-2.0.1/pom.xml#L50-L54

junit:1.48 is the latest version

What you expected to happen:
Install the plugin versions I defined

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):
(without specifying my entire plugin list)
Specify junit:144 and slack:2.01 in controller.installPlugins

If I resolve that particular plugin version to the latest, it does it with other plugins.

Anything else we need to know:
This works correctly when specifying the jenkins image version of 2.235.5-lts - it seems to have broken in later versions

If it's an issue with the plugin installer then it would make sense to address the issue there.
