Do not require the mvn in PATH to come from mvnd dist

[ppalaga]

To avoid some bugs in mvnd I'd like to use the stock Maven via mvn in my PATH.

ACTUAL:
Currently both mvnd and mvn in the PATH must point to the scripts from the mvnd distro for mvnd to work. If the mvn in my PATH points to the stock Maven then mvnd stops working.

If I use mvn from the mvnd distro it seems to behave like mvnd - which I assume does not help me to avoid the mvnd bugs.

EXPECTED:
It should be enough to have mvnd in the path for mvnd to work. mvn should stay pointing at the stock Maven.

Maybe mvnd should be able to pick its own mvn using MVND_HOME env var if MVND_HOME is set?

Currently, as a workaround I only ln -s $MVND_HOME/target/maven-distro/bin/mvnd . in ~/.local/bin and use mvnd only.

[ppalaga]

The only valid workaround I see is to alias the stock Maven as mvnn and leave mvn for the one from mvnd.

Right, I think it would make sense to use a MVND_HOME env variable instead, so that the stock mvn command is not disturbed.
