Parsing support

Language features are more or less defined here:
https://matthewwild.co.uk/projects/scansion/usage/script-basics/

This library supports parsing the following:

• Metadata
  Lines starting with # at the beginning of the file. All metadata lines are optional. If a single line is found it's set as the title, the second lines is set as the description. Lines starting with ## right below will be added as tags. A description is not needed for tags to be added.
  • title: optional
  • description: optional
  • tags: optional
• Client
  • Attributes
    Following lines beginning with at least a tab (\t) character, in the form attr: value, and ending with a newline (\n). Any line that matches this format will be parsed and will be discarded if it doesn't match an actual client attribute.
    • jid: Expects a bare jid or a full jid. Will be converted to jid::Jid.
    • password
    • custom_host
    • custom_port: Expect a u16
• [-] Actions
  • 'connects'
  • 'disconnects'
  • [-] 'sends:' / 'receives:'
    • A block of lines each starting with a tab (\t) after the action will be converted to a minidom::Element.
    • nothing as the absence of stanza.
• Comments
  Optional lines starting with a # or // and ending with a newline (\n). They get discarded in the output

minidom::Element

Minidom Elements require every element to be namespaced. This parser adds jabber:client as a default namespace. It also adds a scansion namespace that is used for the scansion:strict XML parameter.
