/**
 * A simple class encapsulating an attribute/value pair.
 * <p>
 *  This class comforms to the generic grammar and formatting rules outlined in the 
 *  <a href="http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec2.html#sec2.2">Section 2.2</a>
 *  and  
 *  <a href="http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec3.html#sec3.6">Section 3.6</a>
 *  of <a href="http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616.txt">RFC 2616</a>
 * </p>
 * <h>2.2 Basic Rules</h>
 * <p>
 *  The following rules are used throughout this specification to describe basic parsing constructs. 
 *  The US-ASCII coded character set is defined by ANSI X3.4-1986.
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 *     OCTET          = <any 8-bit sequence of data>
 *     CHAR           = <any US-ASCII character (octets 0 - 127)>
 *     UPALPHA        = <any US-ASCII uppercase letter "A".."Z">
 *     LOALPHA        = <any US-ASCII lowercase letter "a".."z">
 *     ALPHA          = UPALPHA | LOALPHA
 *     DIGIT          = <any US-ASCII digit "0".."9">
 *     CTL            = <any US-ASCII control character
 *                      (octets 0 - 31) and DEL (127)>
 *     CR             = <US-ASCII CR, carriage return (13)>
 *     LF             = <US-ASCII LF, linefeed (10)>
 *     SP             = <US-ASCII SP, space (32)>
 *     HT             = <US-ASCII HT, horizontal-tab (9)>
 *     <">            = <US-ASCII double-quote mark (34)>
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 *  Many HTTP/1.1 header field values consist of words separated by LWS or special 
 *  characters. These special characters MUST be in a quoted string to be used within 
 *  a parameter value (as defined in section 3.6).
 * <p>
 * <pre>
 * token          = 1*<any CHAR except CTLs or separators>
 * separators     = "(" | ")" | "<" | ">" | "@"
 *                | "," | ";" | ":" | "\" | <">
 *                | "/" | "[" | "]" | "?" | "="
 *                | "{" | "}" | SP | HT
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 *  A string of text is parsed as a single word if it is quoted using double-quote marks.
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 * quoted-string  = ( <"> *(qdtext | quoted-pair ) <"> )
 * qdtext         = <any TEXT except <">>
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 *  The backslash character ("\") MAY be used as a single-character quoting mechanism only 
 *  within quoted-string and comment constructs.
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 * quoted-pair    = "\" CHAR
 * </pre>
 * <h>3.6 Transfer Codings</h>
 * <p>
 *  Parameters are in the form of attribute/value pairs.
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 * parameter               = attribute "=" value
 * attribute               = token
 * value                   = token | quoted-string
 * </pre>
