Caching the whole .m2 folder also caches settings.xml.

Describe the bug
The .m2/repository folder contains the artifacts.
The .m2 folder contains in additon the settings.xml.

So the settings.xml file contains usernames / passords and such, values which can change over time. It should not be cached, but generated each time.

To Reproduce
Use a non-public repo, which requires a settings.xml file.

Expected behavior
Caches artifacts. Does not cache settings.xml. Absolutely does not overwrite an updated settings.xml using old values.

Additional context
This is completly analog to your gradle orb, which caches specific folders within the .gradle folder, not the whole folder itself, which contains the global gradle.properties.
