How about option 3 is feasible in a slightly modified way:

We host nonoss-libs/jars in non-ASF infrastructure, the ASF CI/Jenkins fetches 
them in a directory.
ACS is build against them, and packaged as debs/rpm and separate bin-tarball 
(oss and nonoss).

The non-oss package are only plugins and these built packages (debs/rpms) are 
copied to the same non-ASF infrastructure/repo.
The CI cleans all non-oss packages. ASF hosts only the oss ones.

Thoughts?
