Namespace support

[jhinrichsen]

A draft implementation is happily humming along. I do not have a clean pull request at hand, because in addition to the namespace extension i had to (1) change include path for darwin/x64 and (2) remove any reference to time/ Deadline related code that i found broke.

Please feel free to have a look at the new ns.go file (not sure if all the interface stuff is needed, i just borrowed heavily from Node/ XmlNode), the new function in node.go, and the new testcase in attribute_test.go.

The change should be transparent to existing clients.

Thanks for your contribution, Jochen. I will review it and get back to you.

Yes, the Deadline related code was intended for internal use. I will create a separate public repo very soon.

Any news of the subject?
I've just stumbled upon the lack of AttributeNode.Namespace() while writing an Inkscape SVG cleaner.

Sorry, the project has been passed to different hands, so this issue was lost in the wayside. Regardless, I don't think there's any future plans for implementing namespace support for attributes from our side. However, if @jhinrichsen has a PR ready, I'll gladly look at it and merge it if it's good to go.

This looks to have been fixed by pull requests #37 and #38

True that. @rzymek, does the new Namespace API meet your needs?
