[AXIS2-4973] MTOM attachment parsing issue with generated code

Description

Input:
Used a WSDL which have this attachment structure:
<xs:complexType name="AttachmentType">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="AttachmentName" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/>
<xs:element name="AttachmentData" type="xs:base64Binary" minOccurs="0"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>

this is inside of <xs:element name="Attachment" type="ns1:AttachmentType" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="3"/>
this is inside of a complex structure (let is be <MyStruct>) and that can be reoccur infinite times.

I used the latest 1.5.4 axis2's wsdl2java with no extra options enabled to make a java stub for the client side.

Problem:
After getting a response with the required aforementioned structure, if there is no attachment then the parsing is ok.
If there is an MTOM attachment (using <ns1:Include xmlns:ns1="http://www.w3.org/2004/08/xop/include" href="cid:this_is_anid"/> inside of AttachmentData tag) then the parsing have problems:

• In some cases, I got unexpected subelement error to the next MyStruct which is after the currently parsed struct if there is an attachment inside of it. However, the attachment is retrieved if I try to remove the unexpected element exceptions manually.
• in some other cases (added 2 other <Attachment/> tags after the first to be 3 attachment tags) the MyStruct structure which helds Attachment tag will be parsed successfully, but the second seems to be not AND I get an unexpected subelement for the next structure which is after MyStruct in the WSDL definition in the sequence.

I have found the workaround for this lately
generating code with this:
<xs:simpleType name="AttachmentDataType">
<xs:restriction base="xs:base64Binary" />
</xs:simpleType>
...
<xs:complexType name="AttachmentType">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="AttachmentName" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/>
<xs:element name="AttachmentData" type="ns1:AttachmentDataType" minOccurs="0"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>

This will give a code which doesn't fail on attachments.
