Unmarshaller.unmarshal method that takes java.io.Reader

[Tomas-Kraus]

XML can be read from java.io.Reader, and often people do that, yet the
javax.xml.bind.Unmarshaller interface doesn't have a version that takes
java.io.Reader.

This is a strange omission given that the Marshaller has a version of the
marshal method that takes java.io.Writer.

Currently the user can work around this problem by:

unmarshaller.unmarshal(new StreamSource(reader));
