Previously builds were done with Ubuntu 16.04, and now we are using
18.04. Thus the generated binaries will no longer work for
Ubuntu 16.04 and Debian 9 users, both of which are outside of their
support window and aren't supported by Abseil. RHEL users are
unaffected, as the binaries already didn't work on RHEL 7 and they will
remain working with RHEL 8. FWIW, Ubuntu 18.04 will leave its support
window in June.
* Added s390x platform support
* Adapt to existing platform naming scheme
* Updated s390_64 library whitelist
* Use g++ compiler version 8.x for s390x
* Introduced dedicated Docker container for building s390x artifacts Minor fix

Maven seems to have improved their download management and instead of
having their webpage choose a host they now have a CDN domain.
apache.cs.utah.edu is slow and is failing to finish the downloading.
Re-sort packages, now that the tabs aren't skewing the sorting.
I'm quite confident I had fixed this already, but I had multiple copies
of this file on multiple machines and must have fixed the wrong copy.
CentOS 6 is dead and no longer has update servers. CentOS 7 is older
than Debian 9 (oldstable), so binaries hopefully work on both. More
testing is necessary, but everything's broken now, so this is better
than nothing.
We stop using protoc-artifacts because now the container is
straight-forward enough that we can just use our own. Previously the
"devtoolset" stuff made us want to share the container.
