Prompted by CVE-2021-3541, but this includes an awful lot of serious bug
fixes by Nick and others.
- configure.ac: bumped to new release
- doc/* updated and regenerated
At least when merely public API is to be leveraged, one cannot use
xmlBufCreate function that would otherwise be a clear fit, and relying
on some invariants wrt. how some other struct fields will get
initialized along the construction/filling such parent struct and
(ab)using that instead does not appear clever, either.
Hence, instruct people what's the Right Thing for the moment, that is,
make them use xmlNodeDumpOutput instead (together with likewise public
xmlAllocOutputBuffer).
Going forward, it's questionable what do with xmlBuf* family of
functions that are once public, since they, for any practical purpose,
cannot be used by the library clients (that's how I've run into this).

commit c71f9305a99b6aa03cb08fab31106c9c56f1be4f added __XML_EXTERNC
cpp construct which not understood by apibuild, leading to make dist
failures, ask to ignore that construct.
