Description

For advanced users, it would be helpful to be able to inject a custom handler via AutoDetectParserConfig. Constructing the actual content handler is tricky. In various places in Tika, some stream to disk, some stream results, some buffer to memory. I don't think we can easily create a new ContentHandler, but we can open up configurability of a ContentHandlerDecorator that is applied in AutoDetectParser.
