[jabber.el] [PATCH v1] Fixes for use with Oracle Beehive.

[David E. <dm...@dm...>]

(I'm not currently subscribed to emacs-jabber-general - please include
me in any replies.)

I'm trying to use emacs-jabber to communicate with the Oracle Beehive
XMPP server at $dayjob. The server seems to be liberal in sprinkling
the XML that it supplies with white space. The XML parser itself is
fine with this, but `jabber-xml-skip-tag-forward' couldn't cope.

More generally, wouldn't it be useful if the emacs XML library
provided a way to consume terms from a buffer in an iterative manner?
I tried playing around with:

  (let ((xml-sub-parser t))
    (xml-parse-region (point-min) (point-max)))

which is doing the right kind of thing, but really it would be more
convenient if we could ask the XML parser to read a single term from a
buffer, return the term _and_ remove the term that was consumed from
the buffer. The emacs JSON parser supports something like this, I
believe (though it has been several years since I last used it).
