// Description: Proxy for XLinq's XDeferredAxis class
//
/***************************************************************************\
When binding to XLinq, a path like "Elements[Book]" natively returns an
object of type XDeferredAxis<XElement>, an IEnumerable whose enumerator
lists all the children with tagname "Book". There are two problems with this:
1. Every call to GetValue returns a new XDeferredAxis, even if no changes
have occurred in the Xml tree. There is no single object that represents
"the children named 'Book'", which leads to confusion with collection views,
sorting, filtering, grouping, etc.
2. XDeferredAxis does not support collection change notifications. This leads
to problems when adding or removing nodes from the Xml tree.
To work around these problems, we intercept calls to GetValue and return
an XDeferredAxisSource instead. We cache this result in the ValueTable, which
solves (1). XDeferredAxisSource's indexer return an ObservableCollection,
which solves (2). At each request to GetValue, we update the contents of
the ObservableCollection, raising an Add or Remove event if possible, or a
Reset if the contents have changed more violently.
The trick is to do this all without actually mentioning XElement, XDeferredAxis,
or other XLinq-defined types in the code, since we cannot take a build
dependency on XLinq. Reflection saves the day.
