Dynamic Skin css resources escape special html characters.
----------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: RF-7992
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/RF-7992
             Project: RichFaces
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 3.3.2.GA
            Reporter: Alexander Smirnov
             Fix For: 3.3.3.CR1


In the dynamic CSS files ( .xcss ) <u:style> element uses ResponseWriter#writeText method that escapes special html characters like < > and & as XML entities.
In the portal environment resource URL can contain parameters, so part of xcss file like this:
		<u:style name="background-image">
			<f:resource f:key="org.richfaces.renderkit.html.iconimages.CalendarSeparator" />
		</u:style>
would be rendered incorrectly:
background-image:url(/portal/auth/portal/default/SeamDemo/SeamPortletWindow?rfRes=org.richfaces.renderkit.html.images.ButtonBackgroundImage&amp;action=b&amp;cacheability=PAGE&amp;DATA=%2FB%2FeAFjYGDg%21v%219049r- , there all parameter delimiters '&' are replaced by '&amp;' entity.
Therefore , most portals does not recognise these URL, and skin images are not loaded.
