Time to back-patch libxml deprecation fixes?

I just noticed that my animal indri has been failing in the
back branches since I updated its MacPorts packages a few
days ago:

ccache gcc -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Wdeclaration-after-statement -Werror=vla
-Werror=unguarded-availability-new-Wendif-labels -Wmissing-format-attribute -Wcast-function-type -Wformat-security

I could switch the animal to use -Wno-deprecated-declarations in the
back branches, but I'd rather not.  I think the right answer is to
back-patch Michael's 65c5864d7 (xml2: Replace deprecated routines with
recommended ones).  We speculated about that at the time (see e.g.,
400928b83) but didn't pull the trigger.  I think 65c5864d7 has now
baked long enough that it'd be safe to back-patch.

Looks like a reasonable plan to me.

Yeah, I saw the failure with indri this morning while screening the
buildfarm, and was going to send a message about that.  Backpatching
65c5864d7 would be the right answer to that, agreed, and that should
be rather straight-forward.

Note however the presence of xml_is_well_formed in the back-branches,
where there is an extra xmlParseMemory that needs to be switched to
xmlReadMemory but that's a simple switch.

Would you prefer if I do it?

Okay, done that in the 12~16 range then, removing all traces of
xmlParseMemory() including for xml_is_well_formed() in 12~14.  That
should calm down indri.

indri has reported on some branches, and is now green for
REL_12_STABLE and REL_13_STABLE.  The rest should be OK.
