[zanata-devel] Changes to Maven profiles for integration tests

[Sean Flanigan]

Update: Alex found a bug in the profile activation.

Until https://github.com/zanata/zanata-server/pull/684 goes in you will
still need to add -Dfunctional-test if you want functional tests to
work, because I forgot to change the profile activation in
zanata-test-war.  Everything else still applies.
