[Petal] BUG: Static attribute values are not XML encoded

[Kurt Stephens]

Hi All,

I noticed that Petal does not write back static attribute values in encoded
form.  The resulting output is not well-formed.  There is not a problem when
Petal replaces attributes using the petal::attribute command.

For example:

<foo email="&quot;My Address&quot; &lt;foo at example.org&gt;" />

becomes:

<foo email=""My Address" <foo at example.org>" />

I think I've tracked down the problem to line 200 in
Petal::Canonicalizer::XML.pm and line 124 in Petal::Canonicalizer::XHTML.pm.
I have attached a test case, with patches to correct the problem.

Best Regards,

Kurt Stephens
