=head1 METHODS
=head2 new( C<$params> )
Create a new XML::GSA object:
my $gsa = XML::GSA->new('base_url' => 'http://foo.bar');
Arguments of this method are an anonymous hash of parameters:
=head3 datasource
Defines the datasource to be included in the header of the xml.
=head3 type
Defines the type of the feed. This attribute tells the feed what kind of attributes the records are able to receive.
=head3 base_url
Defines a base url to be preppended to all records' urls.
=cut
=head2 type( C<$value> )
Getter/setter for the type attribute of GSA feed. By default it is 'incremental'.
Possible values are 'incremental', 'full' or 'metadata-and-url'
=cut
=head2 datasource( C<$value> )
Getter/setter for the datasource attribute of GSA feed. By default it is 'web'.
=cut
=head2 base_url( C<$value> )
Getter/setter for the base_url attribute of GSA feed. This is an url that will be preppended to all record urls. If a base_url is not defined, one must pass full urls in the records data structure.
=cut
=head2 create( C<$data> )
Receives an arrayref data structure where each entry represents a group in the xml, generates an xml in GSA format and returns it as a string.
Important note: All data passed to create must be in unicode! This class will utf-8 encode it making it compatible with GSA.
One can have has many group has one wants, and a group is an hashref with an optional key 'action' and a mandatory key 'records'. The key 'action' can have the values of 'add' or 'delete' and the 'records' key is an array of hashrefs.
Each hashref in the array corresponding to 'records' can have the following keys:
* Mandatory
* url
* mimetype => (text/plain|text/html) - in the future it will also support other mimetype
* Optional
* action => (add|delete)
* lock => (true|false)
* displayurl => an url
* last-modified => a well formatted date as string
* authmethod => (none|httpbasic|ntlm|httpsso)
* pagerank => an int number
* crawl-immediately => (true|false)
* crawl-once => (true|false)
=cut
=head2 create
If no argument received, creates the xml using the groups already added to the object.
=head2 add_group( C<$group> )

A group is an hashref with an optional key 'action' and a mandatory key 'records'. The key 'action' can have the values of 'add' or 'delete' and the 'records' key is an array of hashrefs.
Each hashref in the array corresponding to 'records' can have the following keys:

* pagerank => an int number
* crawl-immediately => (true|false)
* crawl-once => (true|false)
Important note: All data passed must be in unicode! This class will utf-8 encode it making it compatible with GSA.
=head2 add_group( C<$group> )

=head2 clear_groups
Empties the property `groups` of this class.
=head2 xml
