When lexing XML entities such as & and < these sequences are now
converted into their "actual" forms. In turn, Oga::XML::Text#to_xml ensures they
are encoded when the method is called.
Performance wise this puts some strain on the lexer, for every T_TEXT/T_STRING
node now potentially has to have its content modified. In the benchmark
xml/lexer/string_average_bench.rb the average processing time is now about the
same as before the improvements made in
8db77c0a09. I was hoping that the lexer would
still be a bit faster, but alas this is not the case. Doing this in native code
would be a nightmare as C doesn't have a proper string replacement function. I'm
not old/sadistic enough to write on myself just yet.
