Fixes and Improvements
- Fixed issue in bmp that led to some text files being wrongly identified as bmp files during file determination.

- Fixed issue in Word Search that led to some non-conforming files being written out unprocessed.
- Fixed issue in pdf where some files failed with the error "FAILURE_LOG_SYN_TRAILER_2555318497 Unexpected additional Trailer key 'Info' found".
- Updates to gwConfigurationManagement.xsd

- Archive Manager and Word Search Java wrapper compatibility is currently limited to JRE8.
- PDFs generated via the MS Outlook Adobe plugin are not supported.
- Word Search analysis XML no longer reports structural content or changes.
- Processing times may be impacted by changes made to licensing functionality.
- Processing files using multiple threads is not supported. Spawning multiple processes is advised in order to facilitate parallel processing.
