I put the source attachment config back, but "mvn release:prepare" failed.

However, source jars turned out to be easy to fix.  I just added
<phase>verify</phase> as indicated in the attach source example:
  https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-source-plugin/usage.html

This made "mvn release:prepare" run without errors, but "mvn
release:perform" because maven central refuses jar artifacts without
attached javadoc jars:
  https://gist.github.com/steinarb/f1f7aa4fa8b503ff1ece8be0afb18054

So I put the javadoc generation config back, and "mvn release:prepare"
stopped working again.

I have tried the following:
 1. Remove the aggregate javadoc
 2. Go back from javadoc-no-fork to javadoc as the execution goal
 3. Put javadoc attachment in the <verify> phase

But all of them fails in "mvn release:prepare".

Unfortunately, unlike the maven-source-plugin, the maven-javadoc-plugin
documentation doesn't contain a config example for creating javadoc
attachments
 https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-javadoc-plugin/

Neither has google been able to serve up a maven-javadoc-plugin config
that would work.
