/** state that parses redefinable declaration.
*
* "Declarations" are attribute, element, complexType, group, and attributeGroup.
* simpleType is treated differently.
*
* <p>
* When this state is used under states other than RedefineState, this class
* doesn't do anything. When used under RedefineState, this class does several
* tricks to make redefinition easy.
*
* <p>
* Redefinition is done in the following steps.
*
* <h2> Step.1 </h2>
* <p>
* First, say redefinition of declaration "ABC" is found, "ABC" has already
* defined once and it is
*
* <ul>
* <li>referenced from {@link ReferenceContainer} by name, and
* <li>referenced from other expressions directly.
* </ul>
*
* <img src="doc-files/redefine1.gif" />
*
* <h2> Step.2 </h2>
* <p>
* In startSelf method, this class clones the current definition, and updates
* ReferenceContainer to point to the cloned definition (right side).
*
* <img src="doc-files/redefine2.gif" />
*
* <p>
* Note that other expressions hold direct reference to the original definition
* (left side), and these references are not affected by this update.
*
* <h2> Step.3 </h2>
* <p>
* Body of redefinition is parsed and corresponding expression is created by
* derived class. This step is done no differently.
*
* <p>
* Since ReferenceContainer has updated, any reference to this expression found
* during this step is bound to the cloned definition. This self reference usually
* happens.
*
* <h2> Step.4 </h2>
* <p>
* After the body of redefinition is parsed, the original definition (left side)
* is updated by using new expression.
*
* <img src="doc-files/redefine3.gif" />
*
* <p>
* From now on, redefinition becomes visible to all expressions that hold
* direct reference to the original definition. The cloned definition is kept
* as-is so that any self reference found in the body will be maintained correctly.
*
* <h2> Step.5 </h2>
* <p>
* Finally, ReferenceContainer is updated again to point to the updated definition.
* Therefore successive reference to "ABC" will be bound to the updated definition.
* Cloned old definition is kept as-is.
*
