New library for verifying XML contents

[GoogleCodeExporter]

We have created a new test library for verifying XML contents and are going to 
include it into RF 2.7.4. The name of the new library is, unsurprisingly, 
`XML`. The library is already ready for testing and its documentation is here:
http://robotframework.googlecode.com/hg/doc/libraries/XML.html

The library also can be used with earlier Robot Framework 2.7 versions by 
downloading the library and placing it into a location that is in PYTHONPATH. 
The library can be downloaded from here:
http://robotframework.googlecode.com/hg/src/robot/libraries/XML.py

All kind of comments regarding the library are welcome here in the issue 
tracker or on mailing lists.

The main task remaining before this issue can be considered done is creating a 
wiki page for the library. It should include short instructions how to use it 
with earlier RF 2.7 versions.

Another task related to this is changing our acceptance tests that verify 
something directly from XML to use this new XML library instead of some custom 
libs.

This issue was updated by revision 356183ef0b08.

Now acceptance tests use the new library instead of custom solutions. Taking 
the new lib into use was pretty trivial.

We finally have XMLLibrary wiki page for this library. Issue can be considered 
closed.
