Bug#862894: maven-debian-helper: Installed poms are missing the debian.hasPackageVersion property when --has-package-version is specified

Package: maven-debian-helper
Version: 2.1.3
Severity: normal

When the --has-package-version options is used in the debian/<package>.poms
file the corresponding pom should have a <debian.hasPackageVersion/> property
once installed in the package. That's how mh_installpom works in
maven-repo-helper, but this behavior wasn't replicated in the SysInstallMojo
of maven-debian-helper.

As a consequence, the libraries packaged without the debian.hasPackageVersion
property can never be versioned in the ${maven:Depends} variable of packages
depending on them. This is annoying because it's impossible to automatically
enfore versioned dependencies in binary packages.
