Details:
     Note that a full ant build of doc may be required to see changes
     (I was not seeing changes until I did that).

     Any attributes of classes defined in lzx with no type information  
are
     now set to Tag type: expression JS type: any

     'expression' simply means that a type was not selected.  Typically,
     this means that a type could have, and should be indicated.  For  
example,
     hbox.inset has no type, but it's initial value is 0, and if I  
were to say
     hbox.inset = 'hello', I would get strange results.  So really, its
     type should be indicated in the lzx file as 'Number'.  This  
change, then,
     provides compatibility for dealing with missing information, but
     there is still the underlying issue that the info is missing.

Tests:
    cd docs/src; ant clean; ant
    look at output, for example, hbox.
