QName Parameter and Option Values

I think we need to provide the in-scope namespaces along with any
parameter or option value so that QName values can be resolved
properly.  I would be very unfortunate if this didn't work:

<p:option name="initial-mode" value="my:start" xmlns:my="..."/>

That is easy for implementors to do but we need to say that parameter
and option values have their in-scope namespaces from the p:parameter
or p:option element available to the component or processor, respectively.
