Samuel Dionne-Riel bc0421c4cf doc: Adds xml fixing script. (see previous and next commits)
This script is used to automatically fix issues within xml documentation
files.

The script is *for now* intended to be used ad-hoc, and the commits to
be examined.

A future discussion will define whether:

  * This commit and scripts are kept.
  * The script is extended for common use.

The biggest issue right now with the script is that it *could* in theory
destroy a valid space-less varlistentry.

The script could, in practical use, be changed and extended to normalize
some parts of the XML files, mainly:

  * A common quoting style for attributes
  * Fix-up some weird formatting automatically that xmlformat doesn't

# This is *not* a formatter. It, instead, handles some known cases
# where something bad happened, and fixing it manually is tedious.

# Read the code to see the different cases it handles.

# ALWAYS `make format` after fixing with this!
# ALWAYS read the changes, this tool isn't yet proven to be always right.
