Provides general XML-related functionality.
What I'm trying to do here is abstract much of the functionality that directly
accesses the DOM tree. This is not so much to "protect" the other code from
the DOM, but to standardize the way it's used. It will also help extension
authors write code that easily looks more like the rest of Cedar Backup.

XML serializer class.
This is a customized serializer that I hacked together based on what I found
in the PyXML distribution. Basically, around release 2.7.0, the only reason
I still had around a dependency on PyXML was for the PrettyPrint
functionality, and that seemed pointless. So, I stripped the PrettyPrint
code out of PyXML and hacked bits of it off until it did just what I needed
and no more.
This code started out being called PrintVisitor, but I decided it makes more
sense just calling it a serializer. I've made nearly all of the methods
private, and I've added a new high-level serialize() method rather than
having clients call C{visit()}.
Anyway, as a consequence of my hacking with it, this can't quite be called a
complete XML serializer any more. I ripped out support for HTML and XHTML,
and there is also no longer any support for namespaces (which I took out
because this dragged along a lot of extra code, and Cedar Backup doesn't use
namespaces). However, everything else should pretty much work as expected.
