IMHO this should be a client concern. Tika itself should only take an
InputStream and not care where the configuration stream is coming
from. I'm OK with the current utility methods that take a filename, a
File, or a URL instead, but playing with classloaders is a sure sign
of trouble.

The original issue about TestParsers.java is easily solved, see
TIKA-62 and revision 584386.
