Review Comment:
    Reyling on `java.class.path` property or trying to cast to `URLClassloader` 
(on the current thread context class loader) is also error prone as not all 
vendors / classloaders extend it anymore or use the `Class-Path:` property in 
manifests for Java 9+ module system.
   
   Implementing it with pure JDK classes from scratch within OpenNLP and cover 
all edge cases (like it is done in 
[Classgraph](https://stackoverflow.com/a/31785767)) might be cumbersome and 
doesn't add much value just for the sake of reducing transient libs here. 
   
   What we could do as a compromise is to implement (in an additional PR) some 
sort of hacky loader/scan alternative which does not cover all edge cases and 
declare `classgraph` as an **optional** dependency in this module. People, who 
don't want to use `classgraph` can use the hacky alternative (if it covers 
their use-case) via `ucp` / reflections. People, who need a more sophisticated 
solution can add `classgraph` as a dependency on their end and have the 
functionality availble in all edge cases and environments (such as servlet 
containers, ee containers, quarkus / spring boot envs, etc.)
