Description

When using "mvnDebug" to start maven, the MAVEN_OPTS environment variable from $HOME/.mavenrc is not used. This makes it hard to set stuff like -Xmx on a debuggable maven instance.

Workaround of course is not to use mvnDebug but put all debug option, including the -Xmx, inside the MAVEN_OPTS, but this kind of beats the purpose of mvnDebug

The problem right now is that mvnDebug uses INT_MAVEN_OPTS which is initialized at the start of the script with both the debug options and the current value of MAVEN_OPTS. The proposed patch separates the debug options into a distinct variable MAVEN_DEBUG_OPTS which can be set independently from MAVEN_OPTS. The debug script passes both these variables to the command line of the java launcher.
