XML syntax patch

Two minor notes:
- this is "SQL/XML publishing functions" patch actually
- Initial author of the patch is Pavel Stehule, David added some
documentation (AFAIK)

Comments? It would be nice to have for 8.2.

It was Pavel Stehule's patch. I just added a little bit of
documentation.

Cheers,

OK, thanks. I will make sure everyone gets credit.

I've told you privately already, I think it would be a grave mistake to add
this now.

Uh, when? You had Nikolay review David's patch to see if it could be
made consistent enough so it could go into 8.2 and not conflict with the
additions in 8.3.

Now that I know, it will be pushed to 8.3 --- another feature that will
_not_ be in 8.2.

The only thing we could justify under the feature freeze regime is to add the
XML syntax into 8.2, operating on text data. That will change when the xml
type goes into 8.3. So we'd be adding a feature right now with the
announcement that the feature will break incompatibly in the next release.
That doesn't seem very useful to me.

Right, that is exactly what I remember, but you had Nikolay look at the
patch in case he could make it not break incompatibly in 8.3. Anyway,
patch shelved for 8.3. I just wanted to make sure I didn't miss an
email from you.
