We need to modernize the specification doc build #274

The current spec document build is based on ant and the asciidoctor ant plugin. The ant plugin has not been updated in 5 years, and we are using an even older version of it. Even just updating to the 5 year old version of the ant plugin causes the generation to fail because the custom Hibernate tree/block asciidoc plugins are apparently incompatible with that version.

We should look at switching the generation to the maven plugin, but this will probably still require updates to the hibernate-asciidoctor-extensions.
