Original description: 
Task is to open up XMLResource loading so that it isn't tied to our static
loading scheme.

From Joseph Foraci, by email: Hi, I'm using the tagsoup Parser as an XMLReader
for xhtmlrenderer.
Right now I plug it in using
"-Dxr.load.xml-reader=org.ccil.cowan.tagsoup.Parser" as described in the
user guide. However, looking at the code there doesn't seem a way to set
my own features/properties on the XMLReader since it's hidden by the
XMLResourceBuilder. And since there is no way to subclass XMLResource I
can't implement my own way of reading a resource for
UserAgentCallback.getXMLResource().

Need to review calls to static methods on XMLResource. There's no real
justification for them to be static, was just a design decision at the time to
make using them easier.
