[I] Global Initialization of CURL (celix)

   Currently `Celix::framework` depends on `CURL::libcurl`, but the only usage of libcurl is `curl_global_init` in the `celixLauncher_launchWithProperties`. Previously, Celix used libcurl to download bundle from external URL, but that has been removed from the framework. In resource-constrained environment, it is too much of a luxury to depend on libcurl just to use Celix framework.
   
   IMHO, libcurl is not the only library needing global initialization (e.g. OpenSSL), and does not really deserve any special treatment.
   Instead of doing this kind of global initialization in the framework, we could advise our users to setup the global environment in a custom launcher.
