Update PlantUML URL in docs #456

This comment https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor-maven-examples/pull/244#issue-2116160739 brought attention to how to improve the Java side of things using 'smetana' dot re-implementation.

I don't think we should do more than point to the source docs, and in that sense, I think https://plantuml.com/ is a better starting point for users than the current http://plantuml.sourceforge.net

Thanks for the suggestion. I've gone ahead and added a simple means of enabling the Smetana engine in https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor-diagram/commit/1f29346af2b9a6d40880828cccf350e6b44d2784 as well. You could do this before already using a pragma in your plantuml code. The main difference here is that it bypasses the dot lookup code.
