<P>
A SingletonAtomizer combines the functions of an Atomizer and a CardinalityChecker: it is used to
atomize a sequence of nodes, checking that the result of the atomization contains zero or one atomic
values. Note that the input may be a sequence of nodes or atomic values, even though the result must
contain at most one atomic value.

<DD>Add a representation of this expression to a PathMap. The PathMap captures a map of the nodes visited
by an expression in a source tree.
<p>The default implementation of this method assumes that an expression does no navigation other than
the navigation done by evaluating its subexpressions, and that the subexpressions are evaluated in the
same context as the containing expression. The method must be overridden for any expression
where these assumptions do not hold. For example, implementations exist for AxisExpression, ParentExpression,
and RootExpression (because they perform navigation), and for the doc(), document(), and collection()
functions because they create a new navigation root. Implementations also exist for PathExpression and
FilterExpression because they have subexpressions that are evaluated in a different context from the
calling expression.</p>
