[QGIS-Developer] Keeping OTB algorithm in qgis processing

[Victor Olaya]

The original idea was to have most providers removed...which included
R, GRASS and SAGA as well. Finally, only certain providers were
removed, mostly those that require dependencies not provided with QGIS
(LiDAR tools, R...and OTB)

If maintaining the plugin is complicated and no work is done on that,
then definitely it is better to keep it as core. But we have to make
sure that the user knows that the provider by itself is useless, and
that OTB has to be installed separately. Otherwise, we will see
confusion and i think it will not be a good idea

My 2 cents
