This change updates the IGV build configuration to use the [nbm-maven-harness](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.codehaus.mojo/nbm-maven-harness) Maven artifact instead, which provides the same functionality.

Looks good! On my machine, I first had to delete the old `tasks.jar` in order to build again:

$ ant build
Buildfile: /home/christian/valhalla/open/src/utils/IdealGraphVisualizer/build.xml

download:
     [echo] Downloading clusters ide|platform
      [get] Getting: https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/org/codehaus/mojo/nbm-maven-harness/7.4/nbm-maven-harness-7.4.jar
      [get] To: /tmp/tasks.jar
      [get] local file date : Fri Mar 05 06:41:46 CET 2021
      [get] Not modified - so not downloaded

BUILD FAILED



 using the classloader AntClassLoader[/tmp/tasks.jar]

$ rm /tmp/tasks.jar
$ ant build
....
BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 3 minutes 53 seconds

After deleting `/tmp/tasks.jar`, it took some time to download everything but the build worked again.
