chore: prep the repo for automated release

So as far as I can still, this is still going to require manually going into Sonatype to promote the deployment from Staging to Release to get it to Maven Central. I haven't quite figured out why the twilio-java repo doesn't have this manual step, even though we also upload to Sonatype. I'd like some feedback on whether we should try to pivot off of Gradle and set up the repo to be more in line with twilio-java before I propagate similar changes to the other SG java repos.

I'm in favor of pivoting from gradle to mvn. However, I have not been able to get it to function properly.

Here are the steps I took:

1. Made these modifications
2. Created an Example.java file with the following contents:

import com.sendgrid.*;
import java.io.IOException;

public class Example {
  public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
    Email from = new Email("dx@sendgrid.com");
    String subject = "Hello World from the Twilio SendGrid Java Library!";
    Email to = new Email("ethomas@twilio.com");
    Content content = new Content("text/html", "<bold>Test Invalid Emails");
    Mail mail = new Mail(from, subject, to, content);

    SendGrid sg = new SendGrid(System.getenv("SENDGRID_API_KEY"));
    Request request = new Request();
    try {
      request.setMethod(Method.POST);
      request.setEndpoint("mail/send");
      request.setBody(mail.build());
      System.out.println(mail.build());
      Response response = sg.api(request);
      System.out.println(response.getStatusCode());
      System.out.println(response.getBody());
      System.out.println(response.getHeaders());
    } catch (IOException ex) {
      throw ex;
    }
  }
}

3. Tried to compile with:

javac -cp ~/Workspace/twilio-sendgrid/sendgrid-java/target/sendgrid-java-4.4.1-jar-with-dependencies.jar:. ./Example.java

4. Received these errors:

    Email from = new Email("dx@sendgrid.com");
    ^

    Mail mail = new Mail(from, subject, to, content);
                    ^
  symbol:   class Mail
  location: class Example
8 errors

Note that if I download the .jar from here: https://github.com/sendgrid/sendgrid-java/releases/download/v4.4.1/sendgrid-java.jar and run javac -cp ~/Downloads/sendgrid-java.jar:. ./Example.java, compilation is successful.

Also, if I run jar tf ~/Workspace/twilio-sendgrid/sendgrid-java/target/sendgrid-java-4.4.1-jar-with-dependencies.jar, it does seem that the classes are there (note I filtered out all dependencies except sendgrid):

I'm currently investigating the differences between the twilio-java pom.xml and the sendgrid-java pom.xml for ideas on what could be missing.

If I add these two imports, it works:

import com.sendgrid.helpers.mail.objects.*;
import com.sendgrid.helpers.mail.*;

Sam wrote some code to upload the packaged file to the release on GitHub for PHP. I believe we want to do the same with the generated jar so that it shows up here: https://github.com/sendgrid/sendgrid-java/releases/tag/v4.4.1
