+/**
+ * Represents a stream error packet. Stream errors are unrecoverable errors where the server
+ * will close the unrelying TCP connection after the stream error was sent to the client.
+ * These is the list of stream errors as defined in the XMPP spec:<p>
+ *
+ * <table border=1>
+ *      <tr><td><b>Code</b></td><td><b>Description</b></td></tr>
+ *      <tr><td> bad-format </td><td> the entity has sent XML that cannot be processed </td></tr>
+ *      <tr><td> unsupported-encoding </td><td>  the entity has sent a namespace prefix that is
+ *          unsupported </td></tr>
+ *      <tr><td> bad-namespace-prefix </td><td> Remote Server Timeout </td></tr>
+ *      <tr><td> conflict </td><td> the server is closing the active stream for this entity
+ *          because a new stream has been initiated that conflicts with the existing
+ *          stream. </td></tr>
+ *      <tr><td> connection-timeout </td><td> the entity has not generated any traffic over
+ *          the stream for some period of time. </td></tr>
+ *      <tr><td> host-gone </td><td> the value of the 'to' attribute provided by the initiating
+ *          entity in the stream header corresponds to a hostname that is no longer hosted by
+ *          the server. </td></tr>
+ *      <tr><td> host-unknown </td><td> the value of the 'to' attribute provided by the
+ *          initiating entity in the stream header does not correspond to a hostname that is
+ *          hosted by the server. </td></tr>
+ *      <tr><td> improper-addressing </td><td> a stanza sent between two servers lacks a 'to'
+ *          or 'from' attribute </td></tr>
+ *      <tr><td> internal-server-error </td><td> the server has experienced a
+ *          misconfiguration. </td></tr>
+ *      <tr><td> invalid-from </td><td> the JID or hostname provided in a 'from' address does
+ *          not match an authorized JID. </td></tr>
+ *      <tr><td> invalid-id </td><td> the stream ID or dialback ID is invalid or does not match
+ *          an ID previously provided. </td></tr>
+ *      <tr><td> invalid-namespace </td><td> the streams namespace name is invalid. </td></tr>
+ *      <tr><td> invalid-xml </td><td> the entity has sent invalid XML over the stream. </td></tr>
+ *      <tr><td> not-authorized </td><td> the entity has attempted to send data before the
+ *          stream has been authenticated </td></tr>
+ *      <tr><td> policy-violation </td><td> the entity has violated some local service
+ *          policy. </td></tr>
+ *      <tr><td> remote-connection-failed </td><td> Rthe server is unable to properly connect
+ *          to a remote entity. </td></tr>
+ *      <tr><td> resource-constraint </td><td> Rthe server lacks the system resources necessary
+ *          to service the stream. </td></tr>
+ *      <tr><td> restricted-xml </td><td> the entity has attempted to send restricted XML
+ *          features. </td></tr>
+ *      <tr><td> see-other-host </td><td>  the server will not provide service to the initiating
+ *          entity but is redirecting traffic to another host. </td></tr>
+ *      <tr><td> system-shutdown </td><td> the server is being shut down and all active streams
+ *          are being closed. </td></tr>
+ *      <tr><td> undefined-condition </td><td> the error condition is not one of those defined
+ *          by the other conditions in this list. </td></tr>
+ *      <tr><td> unsupported-encoding </td><td> the initiating entity has encoded the stream in
+ *          an encoding that is not supported. </td></tr>
+ *      <tr><td> unsupported-stanza-type </td><td> the initiating entity has sent a first-level
+ *          child of the stream that is not supported. </td></tr>
+ *      <tr><td> unsupported-version </td><td> the value of the 'version' attribute provided by
+ *          the initiating entity in the stream header specifies a version of XMPP that is not
+ *          supported. </td></tr>
+ *      <tr><td> xml-not-well-formed </td><td> the initiating entity has sent XML that is
+ *          not well-formed. </td></tr>
