It seems that an encoding issue appears in the regression tests on
Debian + Meson, 32 bit.

v2 attached updates the regression tests to fix it.

Subject: [PATCH v2] Add XMLText function (SQL/XML X038)
This function implements the standard XMLTest function, which
converts text into xml text nodes. It uses the libxml2 function
xmlEncodeSpecialChars to escape predifined entites (&"<>), so
that those do not cause any conflict when concatenating the text
node output with existing xml documents.
This patch includes also documentation and regression tests.
