Initial pull request for maven based build

The rationale for using maven instead of ant alone is that 
1. It makes dependency handling cleaner.
2. It makes it easy to added other protocols, such as JBoss7 JMX-Remoting, you only need to add an artifact and you're done. 

I'm aware that this is not complete as debian and rpm builds no longer work. Hoping to open up discussion on what should be changed/fixed for an integration.
