Exception thrown is not descriptive, if content-type missing boundary parameter

                 Key: WSCOMMONS-386
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WSCOMMONS-386
             Project: WS-Commons
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: AXIOM
            Reporter: Michael Kaye


Looking at org.apache.axiom.attachments.Attachments, if the contentType 
supplied is something like:

contentType="multipart/mixed;boundary=BOUNDARY"

then the value of this.boundary will be "--BOUNDARY".getBytes();

contentType="multipart/mixed"

then the value of this.boundary will be "--null".getBytes();

This will cause the parser to skip the entire stream and a :
throw new OMException("Mime parts not found. Stream ended while searching for 
the boundary"); exception will be thrown.

It would be useful if the code checked for a null boundary and threw a more 
descriptive error -- the issue is not that the stream ended prematurely, nor 
that there was no boundary, but that the boundary parameter was missing from 
the ContentType.

This applies against 1.2.5 and 1.2.6
