Subject: [PATCH] Do not append "-fedora" to `os.detected.classifier` anymore

Since `netty-tcnative.artifact` property was changed to
`netty-tcnative-boringssl-static` this suffix is no longer a valid
configuration. This change skips it and adds notice about required
dependency as mentioned at:
https://netty.io/wiki/forked-tomcat-native.html#prerequisites-for-statically-linked-netty-tcnative--static
