Attachment: PIG-1839-1.patch
Attaching the initial patch.
Please note that I have modified the existing test case to assert for the
correct number of tuples .
> piggybank: XMLLoader will always add an extra empty tuple even if no tags are
> matched

> The XMLLoader in piggy bank always add an empty tuple. Everytime this has to
> be filtered out. Instead the same could be done by the loader itself.
> Consider the below script :
> a= load 'a.xml' using org.apache.pig.piggybank.storage.XMLLoader('name');
> dump a;
> b= filter a by $0 is not null;
> dump b;
> The output of first dump is :
> (<name> foobar </name>)
> (<name> foo </name>)
> (<name> justname </name>)
> ()
> The output of second dump is :
> (<name> foobar </name>)
> (<name> foo </name>)
> (<name> justname </name>)
> Again another case is if I dont have a matching tag , still the loader will
> generate the empty tuple.
