feat(datasource/maven)!: use latest and release values as tags (#35515)
Adds support for `latest` and `release` tags in Maven datasource. This means that Renovate will no longer upgrade past the `latest` version in Maven unless `respectLatest` is explicitly configured to `false`.

BREAKING CHANGE: Renovate will now enforce `latest` version for Maven upgrades

#### Making your changelogs fetchable
In case you are publishing artifacts and you want to ensure that your changelogs are fetchable by `Renovate`, you need to configure the [scm section](https://maven.apache.org/scm/git.html) on their `pom.xml` file.
For example:
```xml
<scm>
<url>scm:git:https://github.com/path_to_repository</url>
</scm>
```
This is what allows `Renovate` to determine the `sourceUrl`, that it then uses to fetch the changelogs.
<!-- prettier-ignore -->
!!! note
This also works for private repositories.
It can leverage the same `token` that you had to configure in order to be able to reach the private Artifactory.
#### Specifying your project homepage
When opening a Pull Request `Renovate` uses the top level `url` property to determine the homepage of your project and shows it inside the Pull Request.
To customize you can set it inside your `pom.xml`.
For example:
```xml
<url>https://project.example.com</url>
```
#### latest and release tags
When `latest` or `release` values are present in a package's `maven-metadata.xml`, Renovate will map these to its `tags` concept.
This enables the use of Renovate's `followTag` feature.
