[xmerl] Correct bug handling multiple documents on a stream

Change how to interpret end of document to comply with Tim Brays
comment on the standard. This makes it possible to handle more
than one doc on a stream, the standard makes it impossible to
know when the document is ended without waiting for the next
document (and not always even that).

Tim Brays comment about the trailing "Misc" rule:

The fact that you're allowed some trailing junk after the root
element, I decided (but unfortunately too late) is a real design
error in XML. If I'm writing a network client, I'm probably going
to close the link as soon as a I see the root element end-tag, and
not depend on the other end closing it down properly.
Furthermore, if I want to send a succession of XML documents over
a network link, if I find a processing instruction after a root
element, is it a trailer on the previous document, or part of the
prolog of the next?
