#1121327 synfigstudio: depends on superseded libxml++2.6

Binaries produced by this source package depend on libxml++2.6, a C++
wrapper around libxml2.

libxml++2.6 is no longer maintained upstream (#1038804). It has been
superseded by libxml++-3.0, which was itself superseded by libxml++-4.0
(RFP: #819562) and libxml++-5.0 (RFP: #1121304).

If this package is ported to one of the newer libraries, packaging the new
version will require packaging the new library first. I haven't marked
#819562 and #1121304 as blockers for this bug, because I don't know which
one would be more appropriate.

Alternatively, it could be ported to use libxml2's C interface directly,
or to use some unrelated XML library.
