6874ba23ff New module: Support manipulating XML files ()
* Import original unmodified upstream version

This is another attempt to get the xml module upstream.
https://github.com/cmprescott/ansible-xml/

This is the original file from upstream,
without commit 1e7a3f6b6e2bc01aa9cebfd80ac5cd4555032774

- Clean up AnsibleModule parameter handling
- Retained Python 2.4 compatibility
- PEP8 compliancy
- Various fixes as suggested by abadger during first review

This fixes 

* Added original integration tests

There is some room for improvement wrt. idempotency and check-mode
testing.

We are now expecting lxml v2.3.0 or higher.
We skips tests if lxml is too old.

Plus small fix.
