allow multiple scopes for @In annotation
----------------------------------------

                 Key: JBSEAM-1670
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1670
             Project: JBoss Seam
          Issue Type: Patch
          Components: Core
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0.BETA1
            Reporter: Dan Allen
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.0.0.CR1, 2.0.0.GA, 2.0.1.GA


Right now, your only option for the scope on the @In annotation is an explicit scope or a hierarchical search of all the scopes. I can imagine that there are times when you want to look in a handful of scopes, but not all of them. For instance, anything within a conversation, but not above. Additionally, by making this a multi-value attribute, the developer can override the order in which the scopes are searched. They are searched in the order specified.

ScopeType[] scope() default {};	

This would also eliminate the need for the UNSPECIFIED scope since no scopes would assume a hierarchical search. The logic that would have to change is Component#getValueToInject()
