[jbosstools-dev] XULRunner 1.9.2 XPCOM is different for each platform

[Denis Golovin]

I found that last changes in VPE just slay all VPE related tests because 
of xulrunner plugin versions range is started from 1.9.2.0 but there is 
no xulrunner feature for it.
I decreased it to 1.9.1.0 and can confirm it healed tests at least under 
gtk.linux.x86.

I don't think it is good to change vpe code ahead of providing xulrunner 
plug-ins for all platforms supported by JBossTools/JBDS without backward 
compatibility.

I'm not sure it is going to work for mac, I'll check it as soon as I get 
version built with uberbuilder.
