Feature: replace graphviz dot with jdot

[rdmueller]

structurizr lite is a great tool - thanx for creating it!

The dependency to graphviz dot creates some paint points. The same as as plantUML already faced. PlantUML came up with a java port of graphviz dot, called jdot.

Maybe we can make this switch for structurizr too?

It looks like PlantUML still uses Graphviz:

• https://plantuml.com/starting ("optional - you don't need this if you only need sequence diagrams and activity (beta) diagrams")
• https://github.com/plantuml/plantuml-server/blob/master/Dockerfile.tomcat (the apt-get command installs graphviz)

I also can't find anything recent about jdot. So I'm not sure it's actually feasible.

Sorry didn't see this reply. So, this is just for the records:

• Out of the box, plantuml uses graphviz
• there is an option to switch to the internal java version: !pragma layout smetana
• jdot was renamed to smetana somehwere in the past https://plantuml.com/smetana02 - sorry, my fault
