I've realized that Peter's criticism (concerning comparing beginning
of datum with "<?xml") is right: current approach is unable to work
with XML values such as "<?xml ...?><a /><b />".
I'll propose a modification of the patch as long as fixes for NULLs as
input and output values very soon (in a day or so).

The patch attached contains following changes:
1. The function name xmlpath() is changed to xpath();
2. Approach of passing of namepspace mappings to the function is changed:
now that array (the 3rd argument) should be a 2-dimentional array with the
length of the second axis = 2 (e.g., ARRAY[ARRAY['a1', 'http://a1'],
ARRAY['a2', 'http://a2'], ARRAY['a2', 'http://a2']]);
3. Description of xpath() function in docs (I'm sorry for possible
mistakes in English and docbook formatting, please check it...)
