Update 'current license' link in installation-configuration.md #229

It points to 16.0.0.2 which is a year old: https://github.com/WASdev/ci.maven/blob/master/docs/installation-configuration.md

Possibly use @gcharters idea of linking to https://developer.ibm.com/wasdev/downloads/#asset/runtimes-wlp-javaee7 and directing to click on the 'view license' link.

https://github.com/WASdev/ci.maven/blob/master/README.md says to find the license code by looking at index.yml:

"Liberty versions and their respective link to the license code can be found in the index.yml [http://public.dhe.ibm.com/ibmdl/export/pub/software/websphere/wasdev/downloads/wlp/index.yml] file. You can obtain the license code by reading the current license and looking for the D/N: line."

Looking at the index.yml file allows them see the versions that are available from the Liberty repo as well as get the license from any of the versions.

Is that acceptable?

After opening this, I realised that we actually update the README.md for each release anyway - adding to the list of releases in maven central. So we just need to update the license link too. Something to add to the list of things todo when releasing.

We don't reference versions or licenses anymore. Closing.
