The downside here is that it would break downstream builds that set
hadoop-3.2 if it's now called hadoop-3. That's not a huge deal. We can
retain dummy profiles under the old names that do nothing, but that would
be a quieter 'break'. I suppose this naming is only of importance to
developers, who might realize that hadoop-3.2 means "hadoop-3.2 or later".
And maybe the current naming leaves the possibility for a "hadoop-3.5" or
something if that needed to be different.

I don't feel strongly but would default to leaving it, very slightly.
