Upgrade/replace deegree-maven-plugin

[tfr42]

The deegree maven plugin generates a log4j2.xml configuration file for plugin phase assemble-log4j and not a log4j.properties file as expected.

[tfr42]

The maintenance of the deegree-maven-plugin has ended. The code base has not received any significant changes since years and no actual committer is active. The TMC members can not maintain the code base. Thus the TMC has the motion to end the usage of the plugin in the build process of deegree and look for migration strategy. Because the plugin is crucial for the build process and has several shortcomings which already had cracked the build process of deegree.

The plugin has 15 goals:

deegree:generate-buildinfo is used by build info, see #432

[stephanr]

deegree:generate-buildinfo is used by build info, see #432

This raises the question of whether external processes or downstream CI jobs access the buildinfo.properties from the war.
If this is not the case, the metadata for the WAR files could also be written to the MANIFEST.MF, analog to #432

The only known place in deegree [2] itself, the ModuleInfo [3], has already been patched with #432.

Maven plugin to get git describe info for MANIFEST.MF - https://github.com/lukegb/GitDescribe-Maven-Plugin

[tfr42]

PR #1169 has been merged. Release version 3.4.17 has been build without the plugin. The average build time has dropped from 25-28 min to 15-20 min. The project for the plugin itself has been archived (https://github.com/deegree/deegree-maven-plugin).
There are still some open issues such as #1173. A bug fix for this issue is under preparation.
