The assembly descriptor id (e.g. <id>src</id>) is automatically
appended to the name of the archives created by the assembly plugin.

Up until version 2.2-beta-4 of the plugin, the <id> tag was allowed to
be empty, but with 2.2 this changed [1] - the id must now be
not-empty.
This means that for example the binary archives will have -bin
appended to the archive name.

There is a configuration item that can be used to suppress the suffix:
    <appendAssemblyId>false</appendAssemblyId>
However this suppresses the suffix for both bin and src (i.e. they
then have the same name), and it does not appear to be possible to
suppress the suffix only for the binary archives.

Therefore I think we should standardise on -bin (and -src) suffixes
for the archives (we cannot stay on assembly 2.2-beta4 forever).

This means ensuring that the appropriate property is set for the
commons download plugin:

        <commons.binary.suffix>bin</commons.binary.suffix>
        <commons.release.2.binary.suffix>bin</commons.release.2.binary.suffix>
