// \brief XML write a vnl_quaternion
//  Two functions which write a valid XML fragment to an ostream.
// - x_write() writes a single XML element node without content,
//   but with the four values as attributes.
// - x_write_tree() writes a 2-level XML fragment: one top element node,
//                  and one level below it for the four elements
//                  (element nodes x, y, z, and r with a single value each).
//  The name of the top node can be chosen; by default, it is "vnl_quaternion".
