Summary of Changes

Instead of exiting the application completely when we are unable to get a session storage object, throw exceptions. The code commented inline the exit was intentional because the processing would try to close a non-existing session, however since there isn't a way with Joomla's API to start a session without a successful return from this instance there wouldn't be a session to close.

Testing Instructions

Set the $session_handler var in your configuration to "xcache" and try to load Joomla. You should get a "Error displaying the error page: Application Instantiation Error: The xcache Session Storage is not supported on this platform." message which means this message was displayed via JErrorPage::render(). There's no change in behavior for functional configurations.

Documentation Changes Required

N/A, there is no extra documentation beyond the API docs for this method.
