#55: Support XML

Component: Classic and DB API | Version: 4.1

Comment (by cito):
Unlike JSON, there is no obvious way to convert XML to native Python
objects. There is also no distinguished XML representation in Python.
`xml.etree.ElementTree` could be used, but it contrary to the Postgres XML
type cannot store fragments. Also it's not clear whether the user really
wants to load the XML with !ElementTree or prefers to parse it with SAX or
not parse it at all.
It's probably better to just return text and let the user decide what to
do with it, so I am closing this ticket.
