1. Apache Batik bundle changes

As part of the migration of Eclipse Platform to Batik 1.9.0, the third-party Apache Batik bundles changed in the following way:

2. Bundle org.apache.batik.util was bumped to version 1.9.0.
3. Bundle org.apache.batik.util.gui version 1.8.0 was removed. It was a dependency of version 1.8.0 of org.apache.batik.util.gui bundle but it is no longer a dependency of version 1.9.0.
4. Bundle org.apache.batik.i18n version 1.9.0 was added as it was needed by bundle org.apache.batik.css.

2. Apache Lucene bundle changes

As part of the migration to Lucene 7.1, the third-party Lucene bundles were updated from version 6.1 to 7.1.

1. Bundle org.apache.lucene.core was bumped in version so consumers should not see any difference except the changes of Lucene itself (see link below).
2. Bundle org.apache.lucene.misc was removed as it is no longer used by Eclipse Help system.
