Support Maven registries in OSV entries #2088

@oliverchang

Description

@oliverchang

ossf/osv-schema#231 was just merged, which adds optional Maven registries to the Maven ecosystem:

i.e.

      "package": {
        "ecosystem": "Maven:https://mycoolregistry.com",
        "name": "io.netty:netty-handler"
      },

There are some additional considerations to be made here for our matching logic:

The default assumed registry is https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2 (and perhaps other common variants/mirrors?). API queries must take this into account, with {"ecosystem": "Maven"} and {"ecosystem": "Maven:https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2"} both matching against OSV entries with either formatting. We may want to just normalize Maven ecosystems on ingestion to strip the Maven central URL if it is provided.

Unlike with other Linux distros queries, where {"ecosystem": "Debian"} matches against OSV entries with {"ecosystem": "Debian:<anything>"}, API queries specifying {"ecosystem": "Maven"} should not match against all registries. It should default to Maven Central per above.
