Bosh-0.6 - better XML parsing + session creation response + session context
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: VYSPER-212
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VYSPER-212
             Project: VYSPER
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: BOSH
            Reporter: Bogdan Pistol
            Priority: Minor
         Attachments: bosh-0.6.patch

Includes an upgrade to the previous implementation that uses nbxml. In XMPP the 
XML stream flows at level 1 depth, but for BOSH the XML are not streams, but 
full XML (not partial), this means that stanza should be emitted at depth 0.

I redesigned the session context handling, previously I used servlet's session 
(maintained with cookies or URL params), but this is not very reliable, and 
some clients could have problems (e.g. browser with disabled cookies). There is 
also another problem, the cookies are set by sending a response with some 
cookie headers to the browser, this should be accounted when dealing with 
suspended and queued requests. Also there is a session expire mechanism for 
servlets, so this is to be accounted too.

For all the previous stated reasons I redesigned the session context so that 
would not use at all the servlet mechanism of keeping sessions. In the 
specification (xep-0124) it is said that "All requests after the first one MUST 
include a valid 'sid' attribute. The initialization request is unique in that 
the <body/> element MUST NOT possess a 'sid' attribute." So I create a session 
only when the BOSH request doesn't have a sid attribute, and then I use a 
concurrent retrieving map to work with previous sessions.
