Remove dependency to GPL'd jmimeinfo
------------------------------------

                 Key: TIKA-8
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-8
             Project: Tika
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Jukka Zitting
            Assignee: Jukka Zitting


The Lius Lite code from TIKA-7 (most notably the 
org.apache.tika.utils.MimeTypeUtils class) depends on the jmimeinfo library [1] 
by Andy Hedges. Unfortunately jmimeinfo is GPL software, so we can't depend on 
it. I will remove the dependency and hope that TIKA-6 or another similar effort 
will come up with a good replacement.
