xmlnode: Fix some brokeness in xmlnode serialization with prefixed elements. Basically we were treating node->xmlns as the default namespace, but that isn't the case with prefexed elements. In our serialization, I believe we were adding an extraneous xmlns='' to a prefixed element, which changes the (default) namespace for its children. (It's been a bit too long with this in my tree, so I've forgotten the exact details)
