Defines an alternative XML reader based on
lxml(without Beautiful soup). The class is very simple; extractors are defined using XPath. The unit tests include some examples.This reader is generally much faster than the
XMLReader, but offers fewer features. (The speed gain is mostly in the initial parsing of the XML file.)This was built as a proof-of-concept, but we're not planning to merge it currently. We don't want to replace the XMLReader with this one (due to the lack of features), or have two readers side-by-side.
The tests currently fail for Python 3.9, due to a compatibility issue in the test itself; the reader should work fine in Python 3.9.
