Trim down the NetCDF dependency
-------------------------------

                 Key: TIKA-766
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-766
             Project: Tika
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: packaging, parser
            Reporter: Jukka Zitting
            Priority: Minor


As noted in TIKA-763, the NetCDF dependency contains a few LGPL classes that we 
should get rid of, ideally without the workaround added for TIKA-763.

Additionally, with 4.2MB the NetCDF jar is pretty large and includes lots of 
stuff that isn't really related to parsing NetCDF and HDF files.

It would be nice if the NetCDF project could produce a separately packaged 
read-only parser library that only contains the stuff needed by Tika.
