Split jars between library and native libs

[gotson]

We had a few feedback about the size of the jar (around 12mb on the latest versions).

I was wondering whether we could split the single jar into multiple ones. Teh idea would be to have 1 jar with the java library, and other jars (granularity to be determined) containing only the jni native libraries.

If you want the native libs, you would need to add a second line in your pom.xml or build.gradle.

A direct benefit would be for people using sqlite-jdbc on Android (where the native libs must be placed elsewhere), and people using their own compiled native lib.

I don't have much knowledge on jars and loading resources in general, but from a quick Google search it seems possible.

I don't know if maven's classifiers could be of use, or gradle's feature variants.
