[aur-general] Java name guideliness

[Pablo Lezaeta Reyes]

but upstream name not necesary mean the name that the encapsulate that
contain the package need to be named.

There ar a handfull either throw arch and aur history and actual named
packages that not follow the name.

but too looking to the other packages in aur the version is alwas separate
from the name of the package so in the end <namepackage>-<version> will be
used.
Upstream not give a version or give a "-" or a plain space for versions if
ou are going to follow uptream.
