Newline in VERSION file breaks maven-publish

[slominskir]

When bumping the version number in the VERSION file if a newline is added the maven-publish workflow will fail with:

Invalid publication 'maven': version cannot contain ISO control character '\u000a'.

This might be a reasonable behavior. But we could probably make this workflow more forgiving by trimming whitespace.

Note: vim inserts a new line by default. Looks like maybe need to use:

:set nofixendofline

Normally I use IntelliJ and this isn't a problem. Can't assume everyone uses IntelliJ though...

Fixed in each project build using trim()
