Tony Tascioglu ad30955575 libxml2: Fix CVE-2021-3518
This patch fixes CVE-2021-3518. The fix for the CVE is the
following 3 lines in 1098c30a:

   -                   (cur->children->type != XML_ENTITY_DECL) &&
   -                   (cur->children->type != XML_XINCLUDE_START) &&
   -                   (cur->children->type != XML_XINCLUDE_END)) {
   +                   ((cur->type == XML_DOCUMENT_NODE) ||
   +                    (cur->type == XML_ELEMENT_NODE))) {

This relies on an updated version of xinclude.c from upstream which
also adds several new tests. Those changes are brought in first so
that the CVE patch can be applied cleanly.

The first patch updates xinclude.c and adds the new tests from
upstream, and the second applies the fix for the CVE.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Fix user-after-free with `xmllint --xinclude --dropdtd`
The --dropdtd option can leave dangling pointers in entity reference
nodes. Make sure to skip these nodes when processing XIncludes.
This also avoids scanning entity declarations and even modifying
them inadvertently during XInclude processing.
Move from a block list to an allow list approach to avoid descending
into other node types that can't contain elements.
Fixes #237.
