Enhancement: Skip scanning xercesImpl/xml-apis jars with Tomcat

See original GitHub issue

Running Spring Boot 1.5.2 with the embedded Tomcat 8.5.x on Oracle Java 8, I see the following in the logs:

2017-04-04 17:18:18,934 WARN [org.apache.tomcat.util.scan.StandardJarScanner] - <Failed to scan [file:/Users/Misagh/.m2/repository/xalan/xalan/2.7.2/xml-apis.jar] from
 classloader hierarchy>
java.io.FileNotFoundException: /Users/Misagh/.m2/repository/xalan/xalan/2.7.2/xml-apis.jar (No such file or directory)

Should the two JARs listed above, xml-apis.jar and xercesImpl.jar, be also excluded from scans and listed in TldSkipPatterns?
If so, could I submit a pull request that provides that change?

Yes, if you want those jars to be skipped during TLD scanning, you will need to configure the appropriate patterns.
