// MapSeq is like Map but contains seqencing indices to allow recovering the original order of
// the XML elements when the map[string]interface{} is marshaled. Element attributes are
// stored as a map["#attr"]map[<attr_key>]map[string]interface{}{"#text":"<value>", "#seq":<attr_index>}
// value instead of denoting the keys with a prefix character.  Also, comments, directives and
// process instructions are preserved.
type MapSeq map[string]interface{}

// NoRoot is returned by NewXmlSeq, etc., when a comment, directive or procinstr element is parsed
// in the XML data stream and the element is not contained in an XML object with a root element.

// ------------------- NewMapXmlSeq & NewMapXmlSeqReader ... -------------------------

// NewMapXmlSeq converts a XML doc into a MapSeq value with elements id'd with decoding sequence key represented
// as map["#seq"]<int value>.
// If the optional argument 'cast' is 'true', then values will be converted to boolean or float64 if possible.
// NOTE: "#seq" key/value pairs are removed on encoding with msv.Xml() / msv.XmlIndent().
//	• attributes are a map - map["#attr"]map["attr_key"]map[string]interface{}{"#text":<aval>, "#seq":<num>}
//	• all simple elements are decoded as map["#text"]interface{} with a "#seq" k:v pair, as well.
//	• lists always decode as map["list_tag"][]map[string]interface{} where the array elements are maps that
//	  include a "#seq" k:v pair based on sequence they are decoded.  Thus, XML like:
//	      <doc>
//	         <ltag>value 1</ltag>
//	         <newtag>value 2</newtag>
//	         <ltag>value 3</ltag>
//	      </doc>
//	  is decoded as:
//	    doc :
//	      ltag :[[]interface{}]
//	        [item: 0]
//	          #seq :[int] 0
//	          #text :[string] value 1
//	        [item: 1]
//	          #seq :[int] 2
//	          #text :[string] value 3
//	      newtag :
//	        #seq :[int] 1
//	        #text :[string] value 2
//	  It will encode in proper sequence even though the MapSeq representation merges all "ltag" elements in an array.
//	• comments - "<!--comment-->" -  are decoded as map["#comment"]map["#text"]"cmnt_text" with a "#seq" k:v pair.
//	• directives - "<!text>" - are decoded as map["#directive"]map[#text"]"directive_text" with a "#seq" k:v pair.
//	• process instructions  - "<?instr?>" - are decoded as map["#procinst"]interface{} where the #procinst value
//	  is of map[string]interface{} type with the following keys: #target, #inst, and #seq.
//	• comments, directives, and procinsts that are NOT part of a document with a root key will be returned as
//	  map[string]interface{} and the error value 'NoRoot'.
//	• note: "<![CDATA[" syntax is lost in xml.Decode parser - and is not handled here, either.
//	   and: "\r\n" is converted to "\n"
//
//	NOTES:
//	   1. The 'xmlVal' will be parsed looking for an xml.StartElement, xml.Comment, etc., so BOM and other
//	      extraneous xml.CharData will be ignored unless io.EOF is reached first.
//	   2. CoerceKeysToLower() is NOT recognized, since the intent here is to eventually call m.XmlSeq() to
//	      re-encode the message in its original structure.
//	   3. If CoerceKeysToSnakeCase() has been called, then all key values will be converted to snake case.
//
//	NAME SPACES:
//	   1. Keys in the MapSeq value that are parsed from a <name space prefix>:<local name> tag preserve the
//	      "<prefix>:" notation rather than stripping it as with NewMapXml().
//	   2. Attribute keys for name space prefix declarations preserve "xmlns:<prefix>" notation.
