---------------------------------------------------------------------

I implemented the suggested Utility methods, which provide an Iterable for a 
given NodeList or ParentNode. See nodelistAsIterable.patch

I chose IteratorUtils as implementation class, I found this class matching best 
 for the new services.

The util methods now allow easy iteration over org.w3c.NodeLists or ChildNodes 
of a given parent node:

{code}
Node parentNode = ...;

for(Node childNode : IteratorUtils.asIterable(parentNode){
  ... do something;
}

{code}

> org.w3c.dom.NodeList is defined as an "abstract collection of Nodes" and 
> java.util.List is defined as "An ordered collection (also known as a 
> sequence). The user of this interface has precise control over where in the 
> list each element is inserted. The user can access elements by their integer 
> index (position in the list), and search for elements in the list.". It 
> seemed similar enough, so I did an implementation of the useful methods, 
> while throwing the appropriate exception when the method wouldn't make sense.
