Plan to fix issue #1446 - VSCode project loading failure

The issue is that openpdf-html/pom.xml has a resource configuration that references ../ which causes VSCode's Java extension to fail with:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Path must include project and resource name: /

Plan:

• Understand the issue: Lines 92-98 in openpdf-html/pom.xml have a problematic resource configuration that references parent directory
• Research the solution: Use maven-resources-plugin with copy-resources goal instead of resource configuration
• Update openpdf-html/pom.xml to replace the problematic resource section with maven-resources-plugin
• Build and test the project to ensure LICENSE.md is still included in the jar
• Run tests to ensure no regressions (2 test failures are pre-existing network issues, unrelated to this change)
• Run code review and security checks (both passed)

Summary

Successfully fixed the VSCode project loading issue by:

1. Removing the problematic <resource><directory>../</directory> configuration
2. Adding maven-resources-plugin with copy-resources goal that properly copies LICENSE.md using ${project.basedir}/..
3. Verified LICENSE.md is properly included in the jar
4. All code review and security checks passed
