Please note, that this change breaks any external XMLHandler
implementations.

What I forgot to mention in the commit message is that I reinstalled the
text stroking switch for PDF and PS output. Though the text bridges do a
fine job nowadays, I prefer to have the comfort of an additional
fallback should all things go boom.

One MIME type could be implemented by multiple Renderer implementations so conflicts could occur. Almost all XMLHandler implementations will have a dependency on a particular Renderer implementation.

This is one step towards making Batik an optional dependency and making it possible to move the SVG functionality to a separate place later.
