Remove unwanted folders from Maven WAR

When you are using activemq-all.jar file in your maven, you could see that there are lots of folders added to the WAR file especially the bigger ones are

[INFO] Processing overlay [ id org.apache.activemq:activemq-fileserver]

[INFO] Processing overlay [ id org.apache.activemq:activemq-web-demo]

[INFO] Processing overlay [ id org.apache.activemq:activemq-web-console]

In order to remove them from your WAR here is an easier technique
