The test file linearea_nonempty_1.xml reproduces the NPE (without
Manuel's fix).
lastPos being null means that in InlineLM.addAreas, the iterator
parentIter passed to it did not contain any area-generating
positions. In this case, the paragraph is:
Object [0]= LineLayoutManager$Paragraph (id=96)
Object [0]= KnuthGlue (id=104)
Object [1]= KnuthPenalty (id=108)
Object [2]= KnuthGlue (id=110)
Object [3]= KnuthInlineBox (id=111)
Object [4]= KnuthPenalty (id=114)
Object [5]= KnuthGlue (id=115)
Object [6]= KnuthPenalty (id=116)
There are two lines: from 0 to 1, and from 2 to 6.
Line 1 is the problem. In LineLM.addInlineArea (a new method, which I
recently extracted from LineLM.addAreas) non-boxes are skipped, so
that iStartElement becomes 3, resulting in an empty iterator.
I do not understand how the line breaking algorithm can produce a line
consisting of only a glue and a penalty.
