Summary: Compact attribute wrong in HTML

Initial Comment:
Given

<itemizedlist spacing="compact">
    <listitem>...</listitem>
    ...
</itemizedlist>

results in invalid html:

<ul class="itemizedlist" type="disc" compact>
    <li class="listitem">...</li>
    ...
</ul>

Conform documentation it should be <ul ... compact="compact">.

Since the compact attribute is depreciated long ago and never worked well on most browsers, it would be nice to use the opportunity and change html output to class="compact" (for ul, ol and dl).
