Previously, we required Java 1.6 to compile (a corresponding entry had to be made in ~/.m2/toolchains.xml), however the code already required try-with-resources (HelpMojo).

Also update the maven-plugin-plugin version, which seems to fix a related problem when running with newer Maven environments.
