influxdb-java.git/pom.xml references no longer maintained com.dkanejs.maven.plugins

Recent security research discussed problems in the maven ecosystem where the DNS of a no longer maintained project expires and is taken over. https://github.com/mathieucarbou/license-maven-plugin/issues/715 discussed some specifics around maven central which make this less of a problem since they use a formal process for transfers, which influxdb-java seems to be using.

All said, I'm filing this less as a security problem and more for awareness that a component is being used that is no longer maintained.
