Add expression support to the bean name in <action> and <bean-action> etc. elements. [SWF-263]

[spring-operator]

K X opened SWF-263 and commented

To increase the re-usability of a flow definition, it'd be nice to have bean name understand expression too, just like what view name does.

For example:

<!---- Display the first input form view -->
<view-state id="showList" view=".${flowScope.flowVar}.list">
<render-actions>
<action bean="${flowScope.flowVar}Action" method="list" />
</render-actions>
...
</view-state>

Application could follow certain naming convention and reuse the same flow to perform CRUD operations, while the view name and the action bean or POJO bean references are dynamic.

Use the new evaluate and set action elements which accept EL.
