/**
* JSF specific argument handler that ensures the JSF 1.2 "javax.faces.ViewState" parameter is maintained accross flow
* execution redirects. Note that this argument handler does not rely on JSF 1.2 specific APIs, so it can be used safely
* in a JSF 1.1 environment.
* <p>
* Maintaining the "javax.faces.ViewState" parameter is important because JSF uses it to tell whether or not a request
* is a postback. If the request is a postback, the JSF {@link javax.faces.application.StateManager} will be used to
* restore the JSF component states in the view, otherwise state is lost. The actual value of the parameter is not
* defined by the JSF specification.
* <p>
* Note that the "javax.faces.ViewState" parameter will only be added to
* {@link #createFlowExecutionUrl(String, FlowExecutionContext, ExternalContext) flow execution URLs}. It doesn't make
* sense to add it to
* {@link #createFlowDefinitionUrl(org.springframework.webflow.execution.support.FlowDefinitionRedirect, ExternalContext) flow definition URLs}
* or
* {@link #createExternalUrl(org.springframework.webflow.execution.support.ExternalRedirect, String, ExternalContext) external URLs},
* since we're clearly not in a postback situation in those cases.
