Having unversioned javadoc directory is good to have for some commonly used
packages like apache-commons-io (a number of developers should be using this
javadocs). But there is no point having things like that for packages like the
maven-jar-plugin. Virtually noone except a few maven developers will be reading
that so we are not causing any inconvenience.

For me this should be up to the packager.
