Xalan's xslt 3.0 implementation updates

[Mukul Gandhi]

Hello Alan,
    As per your suggestions within mail below, Xalan has modified on
its repos, the code of JDK 1.8 class PatternSyntaxException.

With these modifications, Xalan's XSLT 3.0 code is now compiling fine
with JDK 25 with version 1.8 byte code compatibility.
