CGSpace Java Helpers

DSpace curation tasks and other Java-based helpers used on the CGSpace institutional repository:

• CountryCodeTagger: add ISO 3166-1 Alpha2 country codes to items based on their existing country metadata
• FixJpgJpgThumbnails: fix low-quality ".jpg.jpg" thumbnails by replacing them with their originals
• FixLowQualityThumbnails: remove low-quality thumbnails when PDF bitstreams are present
• NormalizeDOIs: normalize DOIs by stripping whitespace, lowercasing, and converting to https://doi.org/ format

Tested on DSpace 7.6. Read more about the DSpace curation system.
