Description

Currently, a maven build will query the main maven repo to see if a more recent date of an eclipse jar at the particular version number is available. Since we specify versions by exact version numbers, this is useless to do (because eclipse jars in the main maven repo are not updated for the same version). So set this repo access update policy to "never".

Also, set the repo for eclipse jars to not use "snapshots" - we only build with released eclipse jars.

These two fixes should speed up the maven builds of uima by skipping the pinging of maven central for all the eclipse jars we depend on, once a day.
