Improve JavaCC Grammar and Preflight to manage Xref stream object
-----------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: PDFBOX-1101
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1101
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Preflight
    Affects Versions: 1.7.0
            Reporter: Eric Leleu
            Assignee: Eric Leleu


Until PDF 1.4, keywords "xref" and "trailer"  were mandatory at the end of the 
PDF File to know where object are located into the PDF Body.
However, according to my understanding of the PDF Reference 1.5 and 1.7, this 
two entries can be referenced as object stream.
Because of the PDF/A-1 specification is based on the PDF 1.4, our JavaCC parser 
check that the file contains trailer entries and extract these trailers to 
process some controls after Syntax Validation.


TODO :

- Check XRef and Trailer needs in the PDFReference 1.4 to 1.7
- implement new XRef and Trailer managment rules in preflight.
