Currently there is a gap in our documentation concerning the (deprecated) sink connector. We have a doc for promoting a new version to stage/prod (here) and some github README about how to build the code (here), but we are missing the steps for deploying and publishing the artifact on maven central, and then pulling it into the image for platform-mq, etc.

The task of this Jira is provide this. Some steps to cover:

1. Bump version in pom.
2. Maven deploy (to maven central).
3. Publish on maven central console.
4. Get new jar into the kafka connect image for ephemeral.
5. Get new jar into the kafka connect image for stage/prod if there is something missing in the promotion guide, above.
6. Trigger new deployments as appropriate.
