/**
* Given the value of a single header field (such as
* Content-Disposition and Content-Type) and the name of a parameter
* (e.g. filename, name, charset), returns the value of the parameter.
* The value is obtained by decoding RFC 2231/5987-style encoding,
* RFC 2047-style encoding, and converting to UniChar(UTF-16)
* from charset specified in RFC 2231/2047 encoding, UTF-8,
* <code>aFallbackCharset</code>, the locale charset as fallback if
* <code>TryLocaleCharset</code> is set, and null-padding as last resort
* if all else fails.
*
* <p>
* This method internally invokes <code>getParameterInternal</code>,
* However, it does not stop at decoding RFC 2231 (the task for
* <code>getParameterInternal</code> but tries to cope
* with several non-standard-compliant cases mentioned below.
*
* <p>
* Note that a lot of MUAs put RFC 2047-encoded parameters. Unfortunately,
* this includes Mozilla as of 2003-05-30. Even more standard-ignorant MUAs,
* web servers and application servers put 'raw 8bit characters'. This will
* try to cope with all these cases as gracefully as possible. Additionally,
* it returns the language tag if the parameter is encoded per RFC 2231 and
* includes lang.
*
* <p>
* Note that GetParameterHTTP skips some of the workarounds used for
* mail (MIME) header fields, and thus SHOULD be used from non-mail
* code.
*
*
* @param aHeaderVal a header string to get the value of a parameter
* from.
* @param aParamName the name of a MIME header parameter (e.g.
* filename, name, charset). If empty, returns
* the first (possibly) _unnamed_ 'parameter'.
* @param aFallbackCharset fallback charset to try if the string after
* RFC 2231/2047 decoding or the raw 8bit
* string is not UTF-8
* @param aTryLocaleCharset If set, makes yet another attempt
* with the locale charset.
* @param aLang If non-null, assigns it to a pointer
* to a string containing the value of language
* obtained from RFC 2231 parsing. Caller has to
* nsMemory::Free it.
* @return the value of <code>aParamName</code> in Unichar(UTF-16).
