/**
 * 
 * This class simplifies parsing of embedded elements by using the 
 * <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template_method_pattern">Template Method Pattern</a>.  
 * After extracting the current element attributes and content of any child elements, the template method 
 * ({@link #createReturnExtension(String, String, Map, List)} is called.  Subclasses
 * then override this method to create the specific return type.
 * 
 * <p>To use this class, you simply register your subclasses as extension providers in the 
 * <b>smack.properties</b> file.  Then they will be automatically picked up and used to parse
 * any child elements.  
 * 
 * <pre>
 * For example, given the following message
 * 
 * &lt;message from='pubsub.shakespeare.lit' to='francisco@denmark.lit' id='foo&gt;
 *    &lt;event xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/pubsub#event&gt;
 *       &lt;items node='princely_musings'&gt;
 *          &lt;item id='asdjkwei3i34234n356'&gt;
 *             &lt;entry xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom'&gt;
 *                &lt;title&gt;Soliloquy&lt;/title&gt;
 *                &lt;link rel='alternative' type='text/html'/&gt;
 *                &lt;id>tag:denmark.lit,2003:entry-32397&lt;/id&gt;
 *             &lt;/entry&gt;
 *          &lt;/item&gt;
 *       &lt;/items&gt;
 *    &lt;/event&gt;
 * &lt;/message&gt;
 * 
 * I would have a classes
 * {@link ItemsProvider} extends {@link EmbeddedExtensionProvider}
 * {@link ItemProvider} extends {@link EmbeddedExtensionProvider}
 * and
 * AtomProvider extends {@link PacketExtensionProvider}
 * 
 * These classes are then registered in the meta-inf/smack.providers file
 * as follows.
 * 
 *   &lt;extensionProvider&gt;
 *      &lt;elementName&gt;items&lt;/elementName&gt;
 *      &lt;namespace&gt;http://jabber.org/protocol/pubsub#event&lt;/namespace&gt;
 *      &lt;className&gt;org.jivesoftware.smackx.provider.ItemsEventProvider&lt;/className&gt;
 *   &lt;/extensionProvider&gt;
 *   &lt;extensionProvider&gt;
 *       &lt;elementName&gt;item&lt;/elementName&gt;
 *       &lt;namespace&gt;http://jabber.org/protocol/pubsub#event&lt;/namespace&gt;
 *       &lt;className&gt;org.jivesoftware.smackx.provider.ItemProvider&lt;/className&gt;
