Error message could be improved when mistyping mvn coordinate
Description
When running clojure with a mistyped maven coordinate:
an error message is printed that could be arguably improved:
Another common mistake (at least for me personally):
Arguably the error message could suggest to use :mvn/version if the string starts with a number (and not https for git deps).

I forgot to link this up in the changelog, but I addressed this a while back (tools.deps.alpha 0.8.695). It now says:

Thanks.
What about the other case mentioned in this issue?
It seems clojure is trying to show some non-existing coordinate type as whitespace? Instead it could say: I was expecting a map instead of a string, or something else more informative.

Ah! That's why I didn't close it.
