/**
 * ValueExpressionUnwrapper
 * @author doebele
 * 
 * This class is used to unwrap nested ValueExpressions
 * This is useful for Faclet-Taglib-Tags, that forward attributes which may or may not be provided for the tag.
 * 
 * IMPORTANT: The expression in the Facelet-Tag must use a '$' character instead of a '#'
 *
 * Here is an example for such a tag
    <ui:composition
        xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
        xmlns:e="http://java.sun.com/jsf/composite/empire">
        <tr>
            <e:control
                column="#{column}" 
                record="#{record}"
                value="${value}"
            </e:control>         
        </tr> 
    </ui:composition>
 *   
 * In this example the "${value}" will be unwrapped from the TagEncodingHelper in order to dectect
 * whether or not an expression has been provided.
