Use XMLDict to convert XML to Julia dict

[femtotrader]

We might use XMLDict to convert XML to Julia dict (instead of XMLconvert.jl) https://github.com/samoconnor/XMLDict.jl because we can get easily OrderedDict of TA Lib function for code generation

using XMLDict
using DataStructures: OrderedDict
using TALib: FunctionDescriptionXML, d_typ_to_c
