Using IO/StringIO objects one can parse large XML files without first having to
read the entire file into memory. This can potentially save a lot of memory at
the cost of a slightly slower runtime.
For IO like instances the lexer will consume the input line by line. If a
String is given it's consumed as a whole instead. A small side effect of
reading the input line by line is that text such as "foo\nbar" will be lexed as
two tokens instead of one.
Fixes#19.
Instead of directly accessing the `data` instance variable the C/Java code now
uses the method `read_data`. This is part of one of the various steps required
to allow Oga to read data from IO like instances. It also means I can freely
change the name of the instance variable without also having to change the
C/Java code.
After discussing this with @headius I've decided to do this the manual way
anyway. Apparently the basic load service stuff is deprecated and not very
reliable.
