Description
The guts of this enhancement is to make the default RI SwingViewBuilder more configurable. Currently the RI is started and you get the full viewer. A customer has asked that we make various UI elements configurable via a properties file
Here are the main features they are looking for:
Optional Toolbars.
- save, print, search and rotation
- same for annotation bar
- can we do more ?
Narrow zoom ranges
- make the default zoom ranges configurable via the properties file.
Default fit width page view
- the document should specify this in the default catalogue however if it doesn't they would like a property to set it manually.
We all ready have some properties in the ICEpdfDefault.properties and a loading mechanism. An analysis is need to figure out the best way to go about this enhancement.

I've added a SwingViewBuilder constructor that takes a PropertiesManager, so you can initialize it however you want and then pass it through to that class. Also fixed a call to windowManagerCallback since I was assuming it would never be null, but as the ViewerComponentExample demonstrates, it can be.

A few recent changes:
- Added the 'application.zoom.range.default' property that lets you specify a comma separated list of float values that will populate the Zoom Ranges combobox in the UI. For example you could give it a value of "0.25,0.5,1.0" to have 25%, 50%, and 100% zoom available.
- Added a JScrollPane around the search panel that is added to the utility pane. Both scrollbars only appear if necessary, which would really only happen if the window is incredibly short.
- Updated the SwingViewBuilder constructor so any PropertiesManager assigned via the constructor is applied correctly to the non-SwingController code (like setting zoom ranges and toolbar visibility).
- Added a command line switch "-loadproperties [path]" that allows a user to specify a different .properties file than the default
- Added better granularity to the buttons on the first toolbar so you can remove specific buttons like Print, Save, etc.
- Applied the existing property "document.pagefitMode" since it was previously being ignored.

Recently added the ability to set the "org.icepdf.core.views.page.text.highlightColor" property in the local properties file, even though it's a system property. If a -D parameter is passed on startup that will take precedence.

Recently added a "application.statusbar.show.viewmode" property to show/hide the page view mode (one page, continuous, etc.) buttons that are in the bottom right of the status bar. Defaults to true.

Added two more properties to control the status bar.
- (new)
- (new) application.statusbar.show.statuslabel
- (existing) application.statusbar.show.viewmode
The property application.statusbar will hide the status bar complete and as a result the two child properties for status label and view mode will have no effect.
I also added the statusLabel property encase they wanted to show the status bar but only with the view mode buttons.

Carlo can you take look and take a shot at the initial analysis.
