Streamline Maven versions across the infrastructure

[dduportal]

Most of the Jenkins infrastructure assets using Maven are automated enough to get latest versions of Maven when available, as you can see in #4109.

However we still have old Maven versions which should either removed, commented (to explain why not using latest version) or upgraded:

• trusted.ci.jenkins.io has multiple tool versions for Maven: https://github.com/jenkins-infra/jenkins-infra/blob/b7219b29e1cfe860d6ecad3929da43310cf21b99/hieradata/clients/controller.cert.ci.jenkins.io.yaml#L41-L52
• Puppet unit tests using rspec has a mention of Maven 3.9.2: https://github.com/jenkins-infra/jenkins-infra/blob/b7219b29e1cfe860d6ecad3929da43310cf21b99/hieradata/rspec/profile_jenkinscontroller.yaml#L40
• the jenkinsciinfra/packaging Docker image (source in jenkins-infra/docker-packaging) use to build and release Jenkins Core still uses a 3.8.6 version of Maven: https://github.com/jenkins-infra/docker-packaging/blob/6e66c994d26563e0fa7a6f8e7b52842d6bee974e/Dockerfile#L109

These changes must be discussed with their author or usual maintainers!

I doubt any of those have a reason not to be on the latest.

Update: the only "critical" Maven old version in this issue is the one in docker-packaging.

Since we have #4135 preparing a major JDK upgrade in this Docker image, we should bump Maven version first.

Proposal: @jayfranco999 and I will work on this with the following tasks:

• Add an updatecli manifest to track Maven version in the repository for docker-packaging
• Have updatecli to bump the Maven version
• Ensure we have a new image release in 4.X deployed to the release repository

Update for https://github.com/jenkins-infra/docker-packaging:

• Maven version tracked since chore(updatecli) Track Maven version. docker-packaging#111 + chore(updatecli) fixups for jv and Maven manifests docker-packaging#114
• Automated PR to update from 3.8.6 to 3.9.7: Bump Maven version to 3.9.7 docker-packaging#113
• New version is available: https://github.com/jenkins-infra/docker-packaging/releases/tag/4.0.76 with new Maven version

[dduportal]

• Bump jenkinsciinfra/packaging Docker image version to 4.0.77 release#548 => release will now use Maven 3.9.7 for weekly lines
• We might want to check future LTS lines

Update:

-Weekly release of Jenkins used Maven 3.9.7 with success

• PR for cleaning up / documenting the 2 last references: chore(tests/cert.ci.jio) cleanup or document non latest Maven versions jenkins-infra#3484
