Java

Fix dependencies in Java Maven packages

In Tink 1.6.0, the Java Bazel configuration included a couple instances of a non-Android target depending on an Android target and vice versa. This resulted in larger than expected Maven packages.

Miscellaneous

Minor documentation fixes.

Known issues

• ~Tink for Python has issues in setup.py and the distribution scripts. Due to this, PyPI packages have not been published for this release. A follow up patch release will address this shortly.~ PyPI packages for 1.6.1 have been published. If you want to build these packages from branch 1.6 by yourself, patch in https://github.com/google/tink/commit/465753ac71d51baab8804aa7908b96e562fe4bff.
• Tink for Obj-C still does not build with Bazel. However, you can still use it in your apps by installing our prebuilt package.
