Remove unnecessarry code from the generator to decrease the JAR size

[nmihajlovski]

Some dependencies should be removed from the generator module, to decrease the total JAR size,

Removing the commons-io dependency from the generator might require several hours of work to implement proper file I/O manually (file search, file read, etc.), exposing a new risk of introducing new bugs, and over-complicating the code. It will make the produced JAR only 180 KB smaller. My opinion is that's not worth doing it, but what do you think?

It's only used in the generator, right?

Right, only in the generator.

Let's leave it for now, but keep it on the list for future enhancement.
