URL: https://github.com/apache/maven/pull/1459#issuecomment-2023960340
I suggest to provide only the `fatjar` type, without the `classpath-fatjar`
and `modular-fatjar` for now, and modify the Javadoc of `fatjar` for saying
that it goes on the classpath only. The reason is that a JAR file can contain
at most one `module-info.class` file. So either the `module-info` or all JARs
had to be removed, or either they were merged in some way. But the latter would
be tricky, and the result would still not be the same as the separated JARs. So
I think it is probably safer to said that a fat JAR is never modular.
