JobExecutor doesn't roll back the transaction even if the action handler throws Exception
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBPM-2767
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBPM-2767
             Project: jBPM
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
          Components: Runtime Engine
    Affects Versions: jBPM 3.2.8
            Reporter: Toshiya Kobayashi


In case that Job execution of an async node is processed by JobExecutor, the transaction is not rolled back even if the action handler throws Exception/RuntimeException. The transaction is commtted and no retry happens. It looks inconsistent with docs:
http://www.redhat.com/docs/en-US/JBoss_SOA_Platform/4.3.CP02/html-single/JBPM_Reference_Manual/index.html#jbpmsbuiltinasynchronousmessaging
============
If execution of a command message fails, the transaction will be rolled back. After that, a new transaction will be started that adds the error message to the message in the database. The command executor filters out all messages that contain an exception.
============

I've attatched a reproducer.
- unzip jobexecution.zip
- modify build.properties
- ant deploypar
- ant deploy
- ant ejbclient (or access jbpm-console to start process instance)
- access jbpm-console to check process instance's id which is created by the action handler (which should be rolled back)
