Making CharsetEncoder/CharsetDecoder CodingErrorAction to be configurable
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HTTPCORE-278
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCORE-278
             Project: HttpComponents HttpCore
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Rajika Kumarasiri


Due to various character encoding complexities such as the system is configured 
to receive UTF-16 and but receives UTF-8 streams etc.. following exception 
throws by the httpcore library[0]. 

At this point the connection will be dropped. But upon receiving this kind of 
errors we can recover if we configure  CharsetEncoder/CharsetDecoder with a 
CodingErrorAction [1] where the action can be report (default), ignore and 
resume or replace and resume the coding logic. I think this choice should be a 
configuration option in  SessionInputBufferImpl/SessionOutputBufferImpl 
constructors. 

A possible patch will follow.
