Previously, Maven's default behaviour was relied up which resulted
in the artifact ID being appended to each URL as it was inherited.
This behaviour can only be disabled in Maven 3.6 and later, a version
that we cannot use due to an incompatibility with the Flatten Plugin.
This commit works around Maven's default behaviour by defining
properties for the SCM URL, connection, and developer connection and
then explicitly defining the settings in each pom using these
properties. The explicit definition of the properties in each pom
prevents them being inherited from the parent, thereby disabling the
unwanted appending of the artifact ID to the URL.
Fixes gh-18328
This commit reworks 40d8726 as it has introduced an unfortunate side
effect for those who are using a starter with optional starter
dependencies.
`spring-boot-starter-web` defines the json and the tomcat starter. The
latter is part of a set of starters that do not bring the base starter
and the former can be excluded to use gson rather than jackson.
When such arrangement happens, spring-boot-starter-web no longer defines
the base starter (and therefore doesn't bring the core dependencies
that Spring Boot needs to bootstrap).
This commit reviews the starters that define optional starters and
reintroduce the base starter.
Closes gh-14076
