SPI for parsing an XML document that contains Spring bean definitions. Used by XmlBeanDefinitionReader for actually parsing a DOM document. 
Instantiated per document to parse: implementations can hold state in instance variables during the execution of the registerBeanDefinitions method — for example, global settings that are defined for all bean definitions in the document.
