If you haven't installed required client libraries for any given connector, it should simply skip that one.  I've also checked in properly versions of all jars that can legally redistributed by apache; we may well want to change how that's done, but since upstream modifications are needed on a few of them, that seemed like the fastest way to get going.

+1 fro o.a.lucene.lcf

I wonder if that binds us to be a lucene supproject forever, if that
is 100% intended then we should go for it. If we might grow to
different extend maybe o.a.connectors would be an option?
