/**
 * <p>
 * A specialized {@code ConfigurationBuilder} implementation that creates a {@link CombinedConfiguration} from multiple
 * configuration sources defined by an XML-based <em>configuration definition file</em>.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * This class provides an easy and flexible means for loading multiple configuration sources and combining the results
 * into a single configuration object. The sources to be loaded are defined in an XML document that can contain certain
 * tags representing the different supported configuration classes. If such a tag is found, a corresponding
 * {@code ConfigurationBuilder} class is instantiated and initialized using the classes of the {@code beanutils} package
 * (namely {@link org.apache.commons.configuration2.beanutils.XMLBeanDeclaration XMLBeanDeclaration} will be used to
 * extract the configuration's initialization parameters, which allows for complex initialization scenarios).
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * It is also possible to add custom tags to the configuration definition file. For this purpose an implementation of
 * {@link CombinedConfigurationBuilderProvider} has to be created which is responsible for the creation of a
 * {@code ConfigurationBuilder} associated with the custom tag. An instance of this class has to be registered at the
 * {@link CombinedBuilderParametersImpl} object which is used to initialize this {@code CombinedConfigurationBuilder}.
 * This provider will then be called when the corresponding custom tag is detected. For many default configuration
 * classes providers are already registered.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * The configuration definition file has the following basic structure:
 * </p>
 *
 * <pre>
 * &lt;configuration systemProperties="properties file name"&gt;
 *   &lt;header&gt;
 *     &lt;!-- Optional meta information about the combined configuration --&gt;
 *   &lt;/header&gt;
 *   &lt;override&gt;
 *     &lt;!-- Declarations for override configurations --&gt;
 *   &lt;/override&gt;
 *   &lt;additional&gt;
 *     &lt;!-- Declarations for union configurations --&gt;
 *   &lt;/additional&gt;
 * &lt;/configuration&gt;
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p>
 * The name of the root element (here {@code configuration}) is arbitrary. The optional {@code systemProperties}
 * attribute identifies the path to a property file containing properties that should be added to the system properties.
 * If specified on the root element, the system properties are set before the rest of the configuration is processed.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * There are two sections (both of them are optional) for declaring <em>override</em> and <em>additional</em>
 * configurations. Configurations in the former section are evaluated in the order of their declaration, and properties
 * of configurations declared earlier hide those of configurations declared later. Configurations in the latter section
 * are combined to a union configuration, i.e. all of their properties are added to a large hierarchical configuration.
 * Configuration declarations that occur as direct children of the root element are treated as override declarations.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Each configuration declaration consists of a tag whose name is associated with a
 * {@code CombinedConfigurationBuilderProvider}. This can be one of the predefined tags like {@code properties}, or
 * {@code xml}, or a custom tag, for which a configuration builder provider was registered (as described above).
 * Attributes and sub elements with specific initialization parameters can be added. There are some reserved attributes
 * with a special meaning that can be used in every configuration declaration:
 * </p>
 * <table border="1">
 * <caption>Standard attributes for configuration declarations</caption>
 * <tr>
 * <th>Attribute</th>
 * <th>Meaning</th>
 * </tr>
 * <tr>
 * <td>{@code config-name}</td>
 * <td>Allows specifying a name for this configuration. This name can be used to obtain a reference to the configuration
 * from the resulting combined configuration (see below). It can also be passed to the {@link #getNamedBuilder(String)}
 * method.</td>
 * </tr>
 * <tr>
 * <td>{@code config-at}</td>
 * <td>With this attribute an optional prefix can be specified for the properties of the corresponding
 * configuration.</td>
 * </tr>
 * <tr>
 * <td>{@code config-optional}</td>
 * <td>Declares a configuration source as optional. This means that errors that occur when creating the configuration
 * are ignored.</td>
 * </tr>
 * <tr>
 * <td>{@code config-reload}</td>
 * <td>Many configuration sources support a reloading mechanism. For those sources it is possible to enable reloading by
 * providing this attribute with a value of <strong>true</strong>.</td>
 * </tr>
 * </table>
 * <p>
 * The optional <em>header</em> section can contain some meta data about the created configuration itself. For instance,
 * it is possible to set further properties of the {@code NodeCombiner} objects used for constructing the resulting
 * configuration.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * The default configuration object returned by this builder is an instance of the {@link CombinedConfiguration} class.
 * This allows for convenient access to the configuration objects maintained by the combined configuration (for example for
 * updates of single configuration objects). It has also the advantage that the properties stored in all declared
 * configuration objects are collected and transformed into a single hierarchical structure, which can be accessed using
 * different expression engines. The actual {@code CombinedConfiguration} implementation can be overridden by specifying
 * the class in the <em>config-class</em> attribute of the result element.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * A custom EntityResolver can be used for all XMLConfigurations by adding
 * </p>
 *
 * <pre>
 * &lt;entity-resolver config-class="EntityResolver fully qualified class name"&gt;
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p>
 * A specific CatalogResolver can be specified for all XMLConfiguration sources by adding
 * </p>
 *
 * <pre>
 * &lt;entity-resolver catalogFiles="comma separated list of catalog files"&gt;
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p>
 * Additional ConfigurationProviders can be added by configuring them in the <em>header</em> section.
 * </p>
 *
 * <pre>
 * &lt;providers&gt;
 *   &lt;provider config-tag="tag name" config-class="provider fully qualified class name"/&gt;
 * &lt;/providers&gt;
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p>
 * Additional variable resolvers can be added by configuring them in the <em>header</em> section.
 * </p>
 *
 * <pre>
 * &lt;lookups&gt;
 *   &lt;lookup config-prefix="prefix" config-class="StrLookup fully qualified class name"/&gt;
 * &lt;/lookups&gt;
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p>
 * All declared override configurations are directly added to the resulting combined configuration. If they are given
 * names (using the {@code config-name} attribute), they can directly be accessed using the
 * {@code getConfiguration(String)} method of {@code CombinedConfiguration}. The additional configurations are
 * altogether added to another combined configuration, which uses a union combiner. Then this union configuration is
 * added to the resulting combined configuration under the name defined by the {@code ADDITIONAL_NAME} constant. The
 * {@link #getNamedBuilder(String)} method can be used to access the {@code ConfigurationBuilder} objects for all
 * configuration sources which have been assigned a name; care has to be taken that these names are unique.
 * </p>
