Library Dependencies Cleanup

[taher]

Hello Everyone,

After a lot of investigation and work I have a patch that reduces the OFBiz
dependencies by 65 libraries and converts some libraries from compile to
runtime. Everything compiles and all tests pass. I think this is as lean as
we can get without refactoring code.

I am listing the libraries in here before committing the work just to make
sure that I didn't remove anything vital that tests did not catch. I
appreciate your feedback if you have experience and know that any of these
libraries should be added back.

moved from build.gradle to specialpurpose/example/build.gradle

Err, I just realized I'm missing some runtime dependencies for tomcat,
although all tests pass running the server is missing a few items. So, this
makes me want feedback even more :) So appreciate the help
