Make our back branches compatible with libxml2 2.13.x.

This back-patches HEAD commits 066e8ac6e, 6082b3d5d, e7192486d,
and 896cd266f into supported branches.  Changes:

* Use xmlAddChildList not xmlAddChild in XMLSERIALIZE
(affects v16 and up only).  This was a flat-out coding mistake
that we got away with due to lax checking in previous versions
of xmlAddChild.

* Use xmlParseInNodeContext not xmlParseBalancedChunkMemory.
This is to dodge a bug in xmlParseBalancedChunkMemory in libxm2
releases 2.13.0-2.13.2.  While that bug is now fixed upstream and
will probably never be seen in any production-oriented distro, it is
currently a problem on some more-bleeding-edge-friendly platforms.

* Suppress "chunk is not well balanced" errors from libxml2,
unless it is the only error.  This eliminates an error-reporting
discrepancy between 2.13 and older releases.  This error is
almost always redundant with previous errors, if not flat-out
inappropriate, which is why 2.13 changed the behavior and why
nobody's likely to miss it.

Erik Wienhold and Tom Lane, per report from Frank Streitzig.
