improve maven build: support for POMs kept in directories below the project
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: UIMA-815
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-815
             Project: UIMA
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Build, Packaging and Test
            Reporter: Marshall Schor
            Assignee: Marshall Schor
            Priority: Minor


It is convenient to keep multiple POMs in one project, in separate directories. 
  An example of this is in the uimaj project, which has the overall super-pom 
for the uimaj project, but also has in a directory the super pom for the 
eclipse plugins, which serves to factor out the common parts of the plugins.  
Another example is the sandbox poms - there is one overall pom for those 
projects, but as different things get collected together into packages, they 
may have poms in a subdirectory of another project.

For POMs like this, the copying of the license notices, etc. needs to be 
skipped (it's already done at the higher level POM for the project), or if it 
is not skipped, the logic to locate the source is different (you have to go up 
2 dir levels, relative - path - wise).
