xf:submission fails to access event parameter passed by xf:send #2795

In Form Builder, paste the content of scratch.txt in a new form, click Test, click *Submit", and notice that in the httpbin output, the value of my-parameter is empty, while I would expect it to be 42.

I hit this while looking into a related (same?) issue reported by Chunyu on the mailing list.

This has the same cause as #936. Event parameters are not available in the second phase a of a two-phase submission (that is, a submission with replace="all"). Workaround is to store the information somewhere (a separate instance) during xforms-submit, and access it from there in the resource or other AVTs.

How to fix this?

at end of 1st pass, store all the relevant information from the incoming event (anything from SubmissionParameters?)
serialize that information to xxforms-submit event
expose information back to concrete incoming xxforms-submit event

Entered #5832 which when fixed would address this.
