0.10-RC1: org.slf4j:slf4j-api missing from runtime classpath

[davidburstrom]

When bumping from 0.9.12 to 0.10-RC1, unit tests in my project starts failing due to missing org.slf4j.LoggerFactory. It would appear that org:slf4j:slf4j-api is not exposed in the runtime dependencies for the reflections library, though it is used internally.

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/slf4j/LoggerFactory
	at org.reflections.Reflections.<clinit>(Reflections.java:96)

It is of course possible to add org:slf4j:slf4j-api to the test runtime classpath in my consuming project as a workaround, but ultimately, this should be dictated by the reflections library.
