Maven super model

 Inheritance is recursive in Maven but there is a special model which is the implicit super parent in the lineage
 of models you may specify:

 all of the models that you specify are collected to produce a lineage and then the super model is place at
 the top of that lineage to provide default values.

/**
 * A test which demonstrates maven's recursive inheritance where
 * a distinct value is taken from each parent contributing to
 * the final model of the project being assembled. There is no
 * overriding going on amongst the models being used in this test:
 * each model in the lineage is providing a value that is not present
 * anywhere else in the lineage. We are just making sure that values
 * down in the lineage are bubbling up where they should.
 *

 * The path element may be a JAR file or a directory. Directories may use either package hierarchy
 * or module hierarchy, but not module source hierarchy. The latter is excluded because this class
 * is for path elements of compiled codes.
