Description:
The current naming conventions for properties defining the names of jar, ejb, war and ear are somewhat inconsistent.

This patch introduces 4 new properties:

# defined in the java plugin's plugin.properties
maven.jar.final.name = ${maven.final.name}.jar

# defined in the war plugin's plugin.properties
maven.war.final.name = ${maven.final.name}.war

# defined in the ejb plugin's plugin.properties
maven.ejb.final.name = ${maven.final.name}.jar

# defined in the ear plugin's plugin.properties
maven.ear.final.name = ${maven.final.name}.ear

This patch solves the following problems:

1) It removes the risk of name clashes for projects that produce both plain
jar files and ejb jar files, since the maven.ejb.final.name property can be overridden.

2) When packaging wars and ejbs inside ears, it is sometimes desirable to have different names for ejbs and wars, like foo-ejb-1.0.jar and foo-war-1.0.war. This is necessary when the contents of an ear file is to be deployed on different weblogic servers with weblogic.deploy. This can now be achieved by overriding maven.ejb.final.name and/or maven.war.final.name.

This patch should not change any of the current functionality, and the documentation has been updated too.
