/** Used to build a tree of elements representing an XML document.

    An XML document can be parsed into a tree of XmlElements, each of which
    represents an XML tag structure, and which may itself contain other
    nested elements.

    An XmlElement can also be converted back into a text document, and has
    lots of useful methods for manipulating its attributes and sub-elements,
    so XmlElements can actually be used as a handy general-purpose data
    structure.

    Here's an example of parsing some elements: @code
    // check we're looking at the right kind of document..
    if (myElement->hasTagName ("ANIMALS"))
    {
        // now we'll iterate its sub-elements looking for 'giraffe' elements..
        for (auto* e : myElement->getChildIterator())
        {
            if (e->hasTagName ("GIRAFFE"))
            {
                // found a giraffe, so use some of its attributes..

                String giraffeName  = e->getStringAttribute ("name");
                int giraffeAge      = e->getIntAttribute ("age");
                bool isFriendly     = e->getBoolAttribute ("friendly");
            }
        }
    }
    @endcode

    And here's an example of how to create an XML document from scratch: @code
    // create an outer node called "ANIMALS"
    XmlElement animalsList ("ANIMALS");

    for (int i = 0; i < numAnimals; ++i)
    {
        // create an inner element..
        XmlElement* giraffe = new XmlElement ("GIRAFFE");

        giraffe->setAttribute ("name", "nigel");
        giraffe->setAttribute ("age", 10);
        giraffe->setAttribute ("friendly", true);

        // ..and add our new element to the parent node
        animalsList.addChildElement (giraffe);
    }

    // now we can turn the whole thing into textual XML
    auto xmlString = animalsList.toString();
    @endcode
