multiple keys.

93f18f6f77 include each row in the package table, even if there are no packages for
that row; the row is commented out in that case
(this makes it easier to modify the table after generation)

97613ad02d Patch #1051321 (fixes bugs 1010196, 1013525), by Mike Brown:
* Document hasFeature(), createDocument(), CreateDocumentType(),
  hasAttribute(), hasAttributeNS().

* In the documentation for createDocument(), it is now stated that the Python
  DOM API allows implementations to forego creation of the document element
  child node, if no namespace and local name arguments are given. (This
  possibility is left open and unaddressed in the W3C spec).

* Addition by me: use 'name' rather than 'attname', for consistency with the
  DOM specification and the Python DOM API implementation.
