No, they are not.  Some libraries provide multiple formats, and some
formats use multiple libraries.  It is also possible, in principle, for
a format to be optional without any external dependencies.  In fact, I
want to make most of them optional.  Many are super-obscure, and
including them only creates a larger attack surface for no benefit in
most cases.
