(maven-antrun-plugin) 01/01: Restore the common wording on the download page

[sl...@apache.org]

commit cffc8e3ef54a6b2811452fa404ad713968ecc336
Author: Sylwester Lachiewicz <sl...@apache.org>
AuthorDate: Mon Aug 10 01:39:34 2026 +0200

    Restore the common wording on the download page
    
    The wording here had drifted from the text the rest of the Maven estate uses.
    This restores the shared form so the page is identical to its counterparts
    apart from the distribution area and the artifact name.
    
    Rewording elsewhere in the estate had silently dropped links, leaving the text
    as plain prose, so this is not purely cosmetic.
    
    No URL or in-page anchor changes. The ASF licence header is left exactly as
    it was.
