New StaticStringModule

           Summary: New StaticStringModule
           Product: Cocoon 2

When using Modular Database actions, updates in particular, I had a need to be 
able to specify a constant value for a column in the database descriptor.  The 
StaticStringModule makes this easy to do.

You configure it in cocoon.xconf like:

<component-instance 
  class="org.apache.cocoon.components.modules.input.StaticStringModule"  
  logger="core.modules.input" 
  name="static"/>

Then in your Modular Database Actions db descriptor you can do something like 
this:

<value name="status" type="string">
	<mode name="static" type="voidStatus">
		<value>void</value>
	</mode>
</value>

To write the value "void" into the status column of a database table.

Simple but very useful.
