TwelveMonkeys imageio-tiff dependency requirement

[lfcnassif]

First of all, thank you very much for this great library! We have been using it in our open source project for some years: https://github.com/sepinf-inc/IPED

We are in the process of upgrading to icepdf-7.0.0 and I would like to ask about the need for TwelveMonkeys imageio-tiff dependency, since AFAIK Java 11 already has TIFF support natively. Could it be removed without important impacts on rendering or Java 11 TIFF support is quite limited?

Finally, we also noticed jai-imageio-jpeg2000 being added automatically to the dependency tree. AFAIK jai-imageio-jpeg2000 has a specific license that may not be compatible with Apache v2 license, so perhaps it would be a good idea to add it using the provided scope to your pom.xml.

Best regards.

Please also notice bcprov-ext-jdk15on jar AFAIK includes all classes of bcprov-jdk15on plus NTRU algorithms, so you just need to include one of them, avoiding many classes duplication.

Thanks for the all the feedback, I'll get to making the bcprov and j2k changes. I'll need to take a look at Java 11 Tiff support as that slipped under my radar. There is still fallback code in icepdf for tiff support if imageio-tiff isn't found if you don't wan the extra jar overhead.

Great, just found it, thank you!

When you have time to do this, please let me know about your findings, thank you!
