    8569 Ability to easily extract email attachments

    Pull request for feature request https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-8569
    
    Ability to easily extract email attachments
    
    The existing support for splitting an email by it's attachments (org.apache.camel.component.mail.SplitAttachmentsExpression) is limiting that the attachments are still mime encoded, and cannot be easily used by the next stage in a route.
    e.g.
    ```
    from("pop3://james@mymailserver.com?...
    .split(new SplitAttachmentsExpression())
    .to("file:///myAttachmentsFolder")
    ```
    doesn't work
    An improved splitter that decodes the mime parts into byte arrays would be more useful
    
    Added an alternative to SplitAttachmentsExpression called ExtractAttachmentsExpression
    which will split a (multipart) mime encoded email into new camel messages where the body of each message is the email attachment as a byte array, with a header "CamelSplitAttachmentName" containing the attachment name.
