/**
 * A custom digester Rules manager which must be used as the Rules object
 * when using the plugins module functionality.
 * <p>
 * During parsing, a linked list of PluginCreateRule instances develop, and
 * this list also acts like a stack. The original instance that was set before 
 * the Digester started parsing is always at the tail of the list, and the
 * Digester always holds a reference to the instance at the head of the list
 * in the rules member. Initially, this list/stack holds just one instance,
 * ie head and tail are the same object.
 * <p>
 * When the start of an xml element causes a PluginCreateRule to fire, a new 
 * PluginRules instance is created and inserted at the head of the list (ie
 * pushed onto the stack of Rules objects). Digester.getRules() therefore
 * returns this new Rules object, and any custom rules associated with that 
 * plugin are added to that instance. 
 * <p>
 * When the end of the xml element is encountered (and therefore the 
 * PluginCreateRule end method fires), the stack of Rules objects is popped,
 * so that Digester.getRules returns the previous Rules object. 
 *
 * @since 1.6
