Tiff support in Batik

[Thomas E Deweese <th...@kodak.com>]

Hi all,

  My commit was too large and bounced.  

  I also wanted to take a moment to thank Vincent and Sun Microsystems
for the contribution of the Tiff reader/writer we are using.  It's
immediately useful and a great basis for future development.

  Log:
  1) Tiff support, you can now reference most types of Tiff images from
     the svg image tag, and you can now save to Tiff from the viewer and
     the rasterizer (mime-type 'image/tiff').
  
  2) Updated build.xml
     a) Includes brokenLink.svg file in bridge jar.
     b) builds lib/batik-extension.jar with the sample extension classes/code.
  
  3) Fixed a subtle blue tinting of PNG images (caused by a no-op
     ColorConvertOp).
  
  4) Cleaner threads for soft reference caches are now daemon
  
  5) Added test files for tiff (still need to develop more).
  
  6) Added FAQs on the fact that batik-extension.jar is not included in
     any of the batik tools by default.
  
  NOTE: There is still lots of work to be with the Tiff support (both
        clean up and extension work), but for simple uses it is there
        and should work well.  The Trascoder is especially ugly for now.
