Add some additional functionality for programmatically manipulating pages
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBSEAM-853
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-853
             Project: JBoss Seam
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: Core
    Affects Versions: 1.1.6.GA
         Environment: Any
            Reporter: Mike Quilleash


It would be useful (for me at least) to be able to override a definition in pages.xml.

I would suggest the following..

newPage - create a blank page, replacing any existing page
removePage - remove a page entry
getPage - change semantic to return null if a page doesn't exist rather than creating a new page (alternative hasPage for determining if a page is present)

Allow newPage/removePage/getPage to create/remove/access wildcarded pages.

Main tricky thing is the pageStack cache which could just be removed as it didn't look as though the stack building was that expensive.  Otherwise it would need to be invalidated on modifications to the pages map.
