Make some of the Import-Package declarations in logback-classic OSGi bundle optional
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: LBCLASSIC-121
                 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCLASSIC-121
             Project: logback-classic
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Other
    Affects Versions: 0.9.15
         Environment: OSGi Service Platform Release 4
            Reporter: Pavol Juhos
            Assignee: Logback dev list
            Priority: Minor


It might be a good idea to mark some additional packages imported by logback-classis bundle as optional. Namely this applies to packages 

javax.servlet, 
javax.servlet.http,
javax.management

By importing package javax.servlet you are forcing the users to deploy Sevlet API bundle even in non-web application environment. 

The current <Import-Package> declaration in maven-bundle-plugin configuration:

            <Import-Package>sun.reflect;resolution:=optional,
                            javax.jms;resolution:=optional,
                            *
            </Import-Package>

Suggested update:

            <Import-Package>sun.reflect;resolution:=optional,
                            javax.jms;resolution:=optional,
                            javax.servlet.*;resolution:=optional,
                            javax.management;resolution:=optional,
                            *
            </Import-Package>

Feel free to close this as invalid if the above mentioned packages are _always_ required for correct operation of logback-classic.
