While working on this change, I really did not want to write anything
into NamespaceSupport.java.

I really wanted to use the method "getURI" of this class. But this was
returning a null value given a specific "namespace prefix" (but a
non-null URI really existed in the buffer). After I changed the
implementation of "getURI" to use String.equals() instead of '==' this
problem disappeared, and I could observe the functionality working
correctly.

And I correspondingly changed '==' to String.equals() in getPrefix
(which I really did not invoke for this change, but did that for
consistency with the getURI change).

I hope this change is acceptable, as it solved a possible bug during my testing.
