Sample XSLX file with automatic border

When importing XLSX files, the chart border property is ignored and charts always have no border.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a chart in Excel.
2. Format Chart Area -> Set to Manual or Automatic
3. Save as XSLX
4. Open in LO 4.2+

What is expected?:
Chart in Calc will show a border.

Actual Results:
Imported does not have a border in Calc. This can be verified in Calc by 
1. Right click on chart -> Edit
2. Right click on chart -> Format Chart Area
3. Note Border style is "none" when it was "Automatic" in Excel



Bug 72838 has some other great examples of this bug.

Reproduced with LO 4.2.6.1, 4.1.6.2, 4.0.4.2, 3.6.7.2, 3.5.7.2 on Ubuntu 12.04 x86 (I also confirmed transparent background issue)

LO 3.3.0.4 shows the border though not perfect (in Chart Area | Borders :
Line Properties > Style : Continuous) and correct white background.

Surprisingly AOO 3.4.1 and 4.1.0 show good border (same as LO 3.3.0.4: style: Continuous) and correct white background.

Maybe fix in Bug 54361 (bug with transparent background) will also fix this border bug.

Thanks to Kohei fixing Bug 75380, the manual border case is now working attachment 102935 [details]. Unfortunately, the most common setting, automatic border is still not working. Tested on master~2014-08-01_00.34.17_LibreOfficeDev_4.4.0.0.alpha0.
