/**
* Generates web deployment bundles (applet and webstart). This Mojo simply wraps the JavaFX packaging tools
* so it has all the problems and limitations of those tools. Currently you get both the webstart and applet outputs
* whether you want both or not.
*
* This Mojo will automatically try and sign all JARs included in the deployment bundle if 'all-permissions' are
* requested. If permissions are not requested, no signing will take place. The keystore parameters of this Mojo are
* only used in the case where signing is needed, and in that case some are required.
*
* As a general comment, these web deployment techniques have been pretty error prone in the newer releases of Java.
* They are also not ideal if the user doesn't have Java already installed as the JRE installation process is very user
* unfriendly. Additionally, these web deployment methods are the root of all the security problems that have been
* giving Java a bad name recently. For all these reasons and more, I'd highly recommend moving away from these
* deployment approaches in favour of native deployment bundles or just plain old JARs.
*
* For detailed information on generating web bundles it is best to first read through the official documentation
* on the JavaFX packaging tools.
*
* Note: this will be removed in some time, because Oracle created a bundler with id 'jnlp'.
