ANNOUNCE: Apache XML encoding detector update

I've fixed a couple of bugs and added support for EBCDIC and little endian
utf-16, and added a couple of configuration parameters to my encoding
detector for xml files. Thanks to John Cowan for his C detector I realised I
had missed EBCDIC and the other stuff. It's still missing UCS-4 support -
how much is that actually used?

Anyway, it's on CPAN in all the usual places in my directory
authors/id/M/MS/MSERGEANT

I don't think it's mirrored to the rest of the world yet, since I only just
uploaded it.

Also, a note to John Cowan: In reading through your detector I noticed that
it only checks for g=["']...["'], not the full encoding=["']...["'] -
Personally I don't think that's safe, but having read your C code (and
knowing C's poor handling of strings) I can understand why you did it... <g>

Matt.
