Juan Romero Pardines c07a982ec5 Initial import of scew-0.3.1.
Package provided by Thorbj_rn Jemander <thorman@jemander.net> via
PR pkg/23316.

The aim of SCEW (by Aleix Conchillo Flaque) is to provide an easy interface
around the XML Expat parser. Expat gives an API based on event handling 
mechanisms to load XML files. SCEW incorporates functions to create XML files
and handle XML trees. That is, add and delete nodes, change attribute names and
values etc.

SCEW provides functions to load and access XML elements without the need to
create the event handling routines and probably the most important: without
the need to rewrite these functions each time you need to load a different XML
document. It also lets you access to the internal Expat parser, that means you
can still have all the functionality that Expat library gives you.
