Publish streamsx.topology releases in Maven repository

[Golfer474]

Would like to request that the streamsx.topology artifacts (jar files and toolkit zip files) for each release/tag be published in a public Maven repo. This would allow Maven/Gradle based projects to easily consume and update the version of streamsx.topology used.

Publish artifacts in maven repository is a good idea, for example at com/ibm/streams/topology: https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/ibm/

This would help developers working with Java topologies.

The artifacts I see needing published with each release are:

• The API jar/lib. Example name: com.ibm.streamsx.topology-1.15.7.jar
• The sources jar for the API/lib. Example name: com.ibm.streamsx.topology-1.15.7-sources.jar
• The tgz containing the toolkit, etc (the same artifact that is created with each release today). Example name: com.ibm.streamsx.topology-1.15.7.tgz

1.15.8 has been published:
https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/ibm/streams/streamsx.topology/1.15.8/
