zuxml: Small XML Parser and Document Tree

Reads, navigates, and writes XML documents using a bundled copy of the 'Expat' parser (<https://libexpat.github.io/>), so that no system XML library is required. Documents are parsed into a faithful immutable tree exposed through a small vectorized navigation interface. Parsing is strict by default: document type declarations are rejected, external entity resolution is not compiled in, and configurable limits bound nesting depth and memory use. A registered C interface allows other packages to parse XML without linking against the parser themselves, and to feed it incrementally so that a large document need not be held in memory all at once.
