I've got most of the way through the release check process in order to vote
for 1.15.0, but I wanted to check on a change in the distribution release
artifacts.

For 1.14.0, the Dev artifacts were located at:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/nifi/1.14.0/*
For 1.15.0, the Dev artifacts are located at:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/nifi/nifi-1.15.0/*

i.e. there's been a change of directory/path from <version> to
nifi-<version>.

The reason I raise this is that I can no longer build a Docker Image using
the dockerhub/DockerBuild.sh script because it cannot find the artifacts to
download. This may not be a problem if the path change is only for the Dev
artifacts, but if the same change is going to happen for the released
artifacts, then the apache/nifi image (and presumably the
apache/nifi-registry, apache/nifi-toolkit and any minifi) convenience
images will no longer be possible as part of the Release, which will likely
be an issue for a number of users that have deployments using these images.

I spotted this after rebasing my outstanding PR [1] for NIFI-8779 [2]


Additionally, I noted NIFI-9366 [3] after an unwanted directory was created
by the unit tests executed during building and testing 1.15.0-RC3. I raised
a PR [4] - this is a minor issue and not a reason to block any release.
