Steps to reproduce:
1. Start Controls Demo -> Browser Tab
2. Click on the button "Go" to set the URL.
3. In the Browser navigate with the page links
4. Click on the button "Go" to set the URL again (same URL to return to the initial page)
5. This URL is not set due to LCA preserve value mechanism.
Because in RAP we have no idea if there is an additional navigation after the URL/text is set, we should always set the URL when the Browser#setUrl is called. Same for Browser#setText. This works as expected in SWT.

Fixed in CVS HEAD.

To detect that a the url was set, an internal flag in Browser.java is used. To force the client to update the url even if it appears unchanged, "syncSource" (new to Browseer.js) is also called by the server after setUrl.
