     * @short Responsible for loading and declaring available external variables.
     *
     * An external variable in XQuery is a global variable that has been declared to receive
     * its value from the XQuery implementation, as opposed to an initializing expression. Here
     * is an example of a query with an external variable declaration, followed by a ordinary
     * global variable:
     *
     * <tt> declare variable $theName external;
     * declare variable $theName := "the value";
     * "And here's the query body(a string literal)"</tt>
     *
     * An external variable declaration can also specify a sequence type:
     *
     * <tt>declare variable $theName as xs:integer external;</tt>
     *
     * This class allows the user to supply the values to external variables. When
     * an external variable declaration occur in the query,
     * announceExternalVariable() is called.
     *
