Subject: [PATCH] Describe the artifact in the POM

Sonatype Central rejects a deployment whose POM carries no name and no
description; the 1.3.0 bundle failed validation on exactly that. Both
fields were inherited from the parent before, which the portal does not
accept.

+  <description>An API that lets Maven plugins report file changes, messages and progress to whatever is
+    running the build, so an IDE can refresh what a plugin touched and show its diagnostics in place. Outside
+    an IDE the default implementation writes to the filesystem and the Maven log.</description>
