Description

Create an Apache SIS branch for Android. This will require the following work:

• Simulate the JAXB framework if possible, or remove SIS usage of JAXB on the Android branch. JAXB is extensively used in the metadata modules, but some usages are found also in other modules.
• Remove Java2D dependency. This work has already been anticipated by keeping Java2D dependency in separated classes or packages. When a replacement is available on the Android platform, the Java2D type should be substituted by the replacement. This should include in particular java.awt.geom.AffineTransform.
• Get a JDBC implementation for SQLite. If needed, write code that adapt on-the-fly the SQL statements used for the creation of EPSG dataset to SQL statements compatible with SQLite.
