* xml.el (xml-maybe-do-ns, xml-parse-tag): Produce elements in the form (("ns" . "element") (attr-list) children) instead of ((:ns . "element") (attr-list) children) in order to reduce the number of symbols used. (xml-skip-dtd): Change to use xml-parse-dtd but set xml-validating-parsing to nil. (xml-parse-dtd): Parse entity deleclarations in DOCTYPEs. (xml-substitute-entity): Remove in favor of new entity substitution. (xml-substitute-special): Rewrite in to substitute complex entities from DOCTYPE declarations. (xml-parse-fragment): Parse fragments from entity deleclarations. (xml-parse-region, xml-parse-tag, xml-parse-attlist) (xml-parse-dtd, xml-substitute-special): Make validity checks conditioned on xml-validating-parser. Add "Not Well Formed" to error messages about well-formedness.
