t/40reader.t segfaults under Strawberry Perl 5.36 dev #76

XML::LibXML segfaults when running the tests for the Strawberry Perl 5.36 development version. 

t/40reader.t .......................................
Dubious, test returned 9 (wstat 2304, 0x900)
Failed 52/100 subtests

The failure is at this line in the tests: https://github.com/shlomif/perl-XML-LibXML/blob/6f5b3fb68df5a5d212d9b6fe9c96bda102be1293/t/40reader.t#L93

And the actual segfault happens within this call: https://github.com/shlomif/perl-XML-LibXML/blob/6f5b3fb68df5a5d212d9b6fe9c96bda102be1293/lib/XML/LibXML/Reader.pm#L157

Please let me know if you have any debugging steps that could be followed.

Also, if you would like a version to test against then one can be downloaded from https://github.com/StrawberryPerl/Perl-Dist-Strawberry/releases/tag/dev_20230318 (noting the issue with the portableshell.bat file).

This seems to have been an issue with the underlying libxml. All tests pass when using latest libxml (2.10.4) compiled with associated MSYS2 patches.
