Current evaluation

Request to add the maven-targets keyword description to the maven plugin's help text; reported against snapcraft 2.23, no maintainer interaction, and the maven plugin has since moved to craft-parts.

Suggested action: close stale

Reason: The issue is ~9.7 years old with zero comments and no maintainer interaction. The maven plugin was moved out of snapcraft into craft-parts (docs now include /common/craft-parts/reference/plugins/maven_plugin.rst), so the original help-text location no longer applies. The underlying maven-targets feature was implemented (commit 710401610, PR #650), making this a documentation nit in a since-relocated plugin.

Issue body

The current help vor maven plugin doesn't include the description for maven-targets. This description should be included. Current output for snapcraft help maven (snapcraft version 2.23): ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This plugin is useful for building parts that use maven. The maven build system is commonly used to build Java projects. The plugin requires a pom.xml in the root of the source tree. This plugin uses the common plugin keywords as well as those for "sources". For more information check the 'plugins' topic for the former and the 'sources' topic for the latter. Additionally, this plugin uses the following plugin-specific keywords: - maven-options: (list of strings) flags to pass to the build using the maven semantics for parameters. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
