Represents a Particle as defined by XML Schema. A particle is a component of
a content model, consisting of a term and a permitted cardinality range. The
term may be an element declaration, a wildcard, or a model group. To allow
for content models that have not been fully resolved, we also allow a model
group reference as a particle (that is, a reference to a named model group
definition).

A particle is vulnerable if (a) it is contained in a particle that allows repetition, and
(b) everything both before and after it in its enclosing particle
is optional, that is, the input it accepts may be all that its enclosing particle accepts.
The significance of this concept arises when compiling finite state machines with counters;
counters are simply not used in the case of a content model like (a(2,4))(3,5); marking the
ElementParticle a as vulnerable suppresses the use of counters. Example: MS tests, particlesT014</DL>
