It doesn't matter which core you use, just pick one.

It depends, if Solr is on the same server, you'll have Java on the 
server, so installing Tika too would be easy.
In a distributed environment, when Solr is on a different machine you 
might not want to install java on each webserver, then you might want to 
use the Solr server for Tika extraction.
When you have lots of big files, you probably still want to install Java 
on the webservers since sending hundreds of MB over the wire just to get 
some bytes of meta data back would be slow and kind of a waste too...
