VIEWSTATE_PARAM parsing in StateManager doesn't always work
-----------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: PORTLETBRIDGE-37
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PORTLETBRIDGE-37
             Project: MyFaces Portlet Bridge
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Impl
    Affects Versions: 1.0.0, 2.0.0
            Reporter: Michael Freedman
            Assignee: Michael Freedman


Currently the code that parses for the VIEWSTATE_PARAM in the Bridge's 
StateManager is rudimentary (primarily for performance reasons).  If checks to 
see if there is a closing /> to ensure it doesn't read beyond the end of the 
tag.  However some environment (Trinidad) close the element just with a '>'.  
When this check fails we return null meaning the parameter isn't 
located/preserved.  State is lost by the bridge.  The bridge should be more 
tolerant.  At a minimum it should recognize either end of tag.  But failing 
this and other checks it should do more extensive parsing to ensure proper 
execution -- i.e. it should work regardless of whether the name field is before 
the value field and/or '>' is a character in the view state param's value.
