..and add new definitions isomorphic to xml-light's, but with
Text instead of String. This allows us to keep most of the code in
existing readers that use xml-light, but avoid lots of unnecessary
allocation.
We also add versions of the functions from xml-light's
Text.XML.Light.Output and Text.XML.Light.Proc that operate
on our modified XML types, and functions that convert
xml-light types to our types (since some of our dependencies,
like texmath, use xml-light).
Update golden tests for docx and pptx.
OOXML test: Use `showContent` instead of `ppContent` in `displayDiff`.
Docx: Do a manual traversal to unwrap sdt and smartTag.
This is faster, and needed to pass the tests.

This exports functions that uses xml-conduit's parser to
produce an xml-light Element or [Content]. This allows
existing pandoc code to use a better parser without
much modification.
The new parser is used in all places where xml-light's
parser was previously used. Benchmarks show a significant
performance improvement in parsing XML-based formats
(especially ODT and FB2).
Note that the xml-light types use String, so the
conversion from xml-conduit types involves a lot
of extra allocation. It would be desirable to
avoid that in the future by gradually switching
to using xml-conduit directly. This can be done
module by module.
The new parser also reports errors, which we report
when possible.
A new constructor PandocXMLError has been added to
PandocError in T.P.Error [API change].
Closes#7091, which was the main stimulus.
These changes revealed the need for some changes
in the tests. The docbook-reader.docbook test
lacked definitions for the entities it used; these
have been added. And the docx golden tests have been
updated, because the new parser does not preserve
the order of attributes.
Add entity defs to docbook-reader.docbook.
Update golden tests for docx.
* docx writer: support custom properties. Solves the writer part of #3024.
Also supports additional core properties: `subject`, `lang`, `category`,
`description`.
* odt writer: improve standard properties, including the following core properties:
`generator` (Pandoc/VERSION), `description`, `subject`, `keywords`,
`initial-creator` (from authors), `creation-date` (actual creation date).
Also fix date.
* pptx writer: support custom properties. Also supports additional core
properties: `subject`, `category`, `description`.
* Includes golden tests.
* MANUAL: document metadata support for docx, odt, pptx writers
Modify the PowerPoint tests to run all the tests with
template (--reference-doc) as well. Because there are so many
interlocking pieces, bugs can pop up in weird places when using
templates, since it changes how the writer builds its output
file.
For example, I recently discovered a bug in which speaker notes worked
fine and templating worked fine elsewhere, but templating with speaker
notes produced a file that would crash MS PowerPoint. That particular
bug was fixed, but this will forces us to check for that with each new
change.
