[10/50] [abbrv] maven git commit: Simplify the bootstrapping instructions to remove use of M2_HOME.

[ah...@apache.org]

Simplify the bootstrapping instructions to remove use of M2_HOME.

As part of deprecating the M2_HOME environment variable (MNGSITE-223),
change the bootstrapping instructions so that it's no longer used.
