Publish SNAPSHOTs to JBoss Nexus

[gastaldi]

This should avoid rate limits imposed by Sonatype

• [CI] - Snapshot Deployment #12111

[gastaldi]

@gsmet any chance to have this merged before the Snapshot deployment job kicks in?

[geoand]

I have no idea what JBoss Nexus is, so I'll defer to @gsmet on this

[rsvoboda]

https://github.com/quarkusio/quarkus/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#using-snapshots needs to be updated too

[gsmet]

Given our history with JBoss Nexus, I'm not really excited about that. Let's try to push on the Sonatype front but I need to understand exactly what's going on.

@gsmet Does the release process is using different strategy than snapshots push? It seems https://github.com/quarkusio/quarkus-release doesn't have any issues.

Or maybe it's beacause the release is done in several step / over longer period of time?

[gastaldi]

AFAIR Non-snapshot deployments use a different strategy: it uploads a single ZIP file so it doesn't face this issue
