* Fix No :mvn/version specified when resolving dependencies on Jetty
ee9 and ee10 caused by cached POMs sharing dependency management

:exec-fn and :cmd keys. See the blog post:
https://blog.michielborkent.nl/babashka-tasks-cli.html
These task keys should be considered experimental and may change in
a future version of babashka, depending on feedback from the
community
* Clojure 1.13 map destructuring with :keys! etc.

lang/babashka: New port: Fast native Clojure scripting runtime
Babashka is a native, fast-starting Clojure interpreter for scripting.
It uses GraalVM native-image to produce a self-contained binary that
starts instantly, making Clojure practical for shell scripting and
command-line tools.
This port installs a statically-linked Linux binary that runs via
FreeBSD's Linux binary compatibility layer (Linuxulator).
