Description

steps to reproduce:

1. git clone https://github.com/takari/maven-polyglot.git
2. using maven 3.3.1 on WIndows, do a

mvn clean install

build fails with

[INFO] --- maven-invoker-plugin:1.5:run (integration-test) @ polyglot-ruby ---

it seems that mvn.bat was renamed to mvn.cmd with maven 3.3.1

While maven-invoker-plugin could arguably be smarter to locate the mvn script, I think it's best to revert the rename unless there was a specific reason to rename from .bat to .cmd.
