Install .jar's locally

# Designed to be run from a project root directory, the script will:
# - recursively traverse down the folder structure from the execution location
# - look for 'target' folders
# - look for jar's with a name matching a pattern like '*.jar'
# - install all found jar's into the local maven repo
#
# NOTE: if you need to install test jar's then you need to specify an option -Dpackaging=test-jar
