Descrição
### Describe the bug, including details regarding any error messages, version, and platform.
If you add flight-sql-jdbc-driver as a dependency to a java appllication it pulls in 70MB of dependencies including 8 platform specific versions of netty and 1000s of files. H2 database which includes a JDBC driver and a database engine is 2.5MB. If you want smaller, here is JDBC implemented as a single file (https://github.com/KxSystems/kdb/blob/master/c/jdbc.java), this is used by 100s of users globally.
I admire the idea of a common data format but tying it to a 70MB verbose implementation when someone just wants a java driver isn't convincing me.
Eclipse, apache, google, gson, flatbuffer - it's basically every popular java dependency in the world.
- **There's a 256kb suffix list text file from mozilla in there.** What's that for? No attempt has been made at crafting something beautiful. 256kb is 10% of the size of H2 database and JDBC driver.
- 13 MB for platform specific nettys is larger than 80% of other database drivers alone. (screenshot below)

Direção de pesquisa
Comece inspecionando a árvore de dependências de flight-sql-jdbc-driver, dando atenção especial a mozilla/public-suffix-list.txt e aos artefatos do Netty específicos de cada plataforma mencionados no relatório. Confirme quais dependências são responsáveis pelo tamanho relatado e revise os pontos de entrada do empacotamento do driver JDBC. O trabalho estará concluído quando houver uma redução acordada e mensurável na pegada de dependências sem quebrar o driver JDBC Java.
