rustc forbids cases where an enum variant and an associated type of a
trait conflict for a while now [1].
We must thus avoid referring to associated items on types we do not
control in the macros. There was only one case I found, and it was in
the TryFrom implementation, and could be easily resolved by explicitly
spelling out Self::Error.

This reverts commit 4e5f0bc961.
Unfortunately, in std contexts, the `alloc` crate is not imported. That
means we cannot rely on it being accessible and it in fact breaks builds
of crates which are not `no_std`.
Fixes#155.
This avoids the need for an expensive clone. Since we switched to AsXml
instead of IntoXml, we don't necessarily have to clone the data when
building new elements, only when it's absolutely necessary. The clones
then happen implicitly in the ItemToEvent iterator used internally.
This mostly fixes#86, with the caveat that there's no absolutely cheap
test: On success, the entire element will be copied, while on failure,
you learn about it rather quickly.
This is bare-bones and is missing many features which we intend to add
in future commits, such as parsing from attributes whose names differ
from the field names and parsing into non-String types.
Well, not really, of course. All of this will make sense once we start
adding support for fields and non-struct types. Refactoring the code now
before we start to add actual member field parsing is much easier.
How do I know that this will work out? Well, my crystal ball knows it.
Don't believe me? Okay, ChatGPT told me ... Alright alright, I went
through the entire process of implementing this feature *twice* at this
point and have a pretty good idea of where to draw the abstraction lines
so that everything falls neatly into place. You'll have to trust me on
this one.
(Or, you know, check out old branches in my xmpp-rs repo. That might
work, too. `feature/derive-macro-streaming-full` might be a name to look
for if you dare.)
If we are going to support structs with fields, it would be good to have
that struct-related code organised a little and less splashed over the
main lib.rs file.
