MOXy Extensible Models - Refresh Example

In this example we will leverage EclipseLink JAXB (MOXy)'s concepts of externalized metadata (represented as a MetadataSource), and extensible models.  The MetadataSource will be used to define the metadata for the extensions.  In EclipseLink 2.3 we have introduced the ability for a JAXBContext to be "refreshed".  This means that without stopping the application we can supply metadata about new extensions.
