Introduce new Maven packaging tooling with new macros, automated install 
section and more.

== Detailed description ==
Current Maven packaging can be time-consuming and full of repetition even for 
simple packages. To simplify Maven packaging new XMvn tools and macros have 
been developed. Main features of XMvn include:

    No need for patched Maven (simpler maintenance)
    Automated %install section with possible per-artifact installation 
configuration
    Automatic requires generation for Maven artifacts 

Goal of this feature is to migrate all packages to use XMvn instead of mvn-
rpmbuild script. Several packages have already been converted as part of 
initial testing:
