PDFBOX-2883: keep 1.8 method as deprecated

> Unify memory handling

>          Issue Type: Improvement

> PDFBOX now has at least 2 different mechanisms to use main memory vs. keeping 
> large data in temporary file: in case of provided input stream the stream is 
> copied to temporary file and all read PDF streams are handled by 
> RandomAccessBuffer/ScratchFile.
> In PDFBOX-2882 I've done a re-implementation for ScratchFile which is quite 
> fast and allows to set a maximum amount of memory to be used for its pages 
> before it starts using the scratch file. This implementation could be used as 
> the general 'backend' for all buffered streams and even the file input stream 
> copy. As long as the PDF fits into the allowed maximum memory it should 
> equally fast as RandomAccessBuffer while it allows for good control of memory 
> usage by going to scratch file if needed. This prevents OOM in case of large 
> files.
> In order to use this the PDDocument methods should be changed to not have a 
> 'useScratchFile' parameter but to take a MemoryHandling object which details 
> the Buffering strategy (using ScratchFile; what amount of main memory can be 
> used, ...).
> I've opened this issue for discussing. Since we need API changes in 
> PDDocument it should be done before 2.0 release.
