// BUG(rsc): Mapping between XML elements and data structures is inherently flawed:
// an XML element is an order-dependent collection of anonymous
// values, while a data structure is an order-independent collection
// of named values.
// See package json for a textual representation more suitable
// to data structures.

// Unmarshal parses the XML-encoded data and stores the result in
// the value pointed to by v, which must be an arbitrary struct,
// slice, or string. Well-formed data that does not fit into v is
// discarded.
//
// Because Unmarshal uses the reflect package, it can only assign
// to exported (upper case) fields. Unmarshal uses a case-sensitive
// comparison to match XML element names to tag values and struct
// field names.
//
// Unmarshal maps an XML element to a struct using the following rules.
// In the rules, the tag of a field refers to the value associated with the
// key 'xml' in the struct field's tag (see the example above).
//
//   * If the struct has a field of type []byte or string with tag
//      ",innerxml", Unmarshal accumulates the raw XML nested inside the
//      element in that field. The rest of the rules still apply.
//
//   * If the struct has a field named XMLName of type Name,
//      Unmarshal records the element name in that field.
//
//   * If the XMLName field has an associated tag of the form
//      "name" or "namespace-URL name", the XML element must have
//      the given name (and, optionally, name space) or else Unmarshal
//      returns an error.
//
//   * If the XML element has an attribute whose name matches a
//      struct field name with an associated tag containing ",attr" or
//      the explicit name in a struct field tag of the form "name,attr",
//      Unmarshal records the attribute value in that field.
//
//   * If the XML element has an attribute not handled by the previous
//      rule and the struct has a field with an associated tag containing
//      ",any,attr", Unmarshal records the attribute value in the first
//      such field.
//
//   * If the XML element contains character data, that data is
//      accumulated in the first struct field that has tag ",chardata".
//      The struct field may have type []byte or string.
//      If there is no such field, the character data is discarded.
//
//   * If the XML element contains comments, they are accumulated in
//      the first struct field that has tag ",comment".  The struct
//      field may have type []byte or string. If there is no such
//      field, the comments are discarded.
//
//   * If the XML element contains a sub-element whose name matches
//      the prefix of a tag formatted as "a" or "a>b>c", unmarshal
//      will descend into the XML structure looking for elements with the
//      given names, and will map the innermost elements to that struct
//      field. A tag starting with ">" is equivalent to one starting
//      with the field name followed by ">".
//
//   * If the XML element contains a sub-element whose name matches
//      a struct field's XMLName tag and the struct field has no
//      explicit name tag as per the previous rule, unmarshal maps
//      the sub-element to that struct field.
//
//   * If the XML element contains a sub-element whose name matches a
//      field without any mode flags (",attr", ",chardata", etc), Unmarshal
//      maps the sub-element to that struct field.
//
//   * If the XML element contains a sub-element that hasn't matched any
//      of the above rules and the struct has a field with tag ",any",
//      unmarshal maps the sub-element to that struct field.
//
//   * An anonymous struct field is handled as if the fields of its
//      value were part of the outer struct.
//
//   * A struct field with tag "-" is never unmarshaled into.
//
// If Unmarshal encounters a field type that implements the Unmarshaler
// interface, Unmarshal calls its UnmarshalXML method to produce the value from
// the XML element.  Otherwise, if the value implements
// encoding.TextUnmarshaler, Unmarshal calls that value's UnmarshalText method.
//
// Unmarshal maps an XML element to a string or []byte by saving the
// concatenation of that element's character data in the string or
// []byte. The saved []byte is never nil.
//
// Unmarshal maps an attribute value to a string or []byte by saving
// the value in the string or slice.
//
// Unmarshal maps an attribute value to an Attr by saving the attribute,
// including its name, in the Attr.
//
// Unmarshal maps an XML element or attribute value to a slice by
// extending the length of the slice and mapping the element or attribute
// to the newly created value.
//
// Unmarshal maps an XML element or attribute value to a bool by
// setting it to the boolean value represented by the string. Whitespace
// is trimmed and ignored.
//
// Unmarshal maps an XML element or attribute value to an integer or
// floating-point field by setting the field to the result of
// interpreting the string value in decimal. There is no check for
// overflow. Whitespace is trimmed and ignored.
//
// Unmarshal maps an XML element to a Name by recording the element
// name.
//
// Unmarshal maps an XML element to a pointer by setting the pointer
// to a freshly allocated value and then mapping the element to that value.
//
// A missing element or empty attribute value will be unmarshaled as a zero value.
// If the field is a slice, a zero value will be appended to the field. Otherwise, the
// field will be set to its zero value.
