Summary
This pull request adds comprehensive support for the SQL Server
XMLdata type to the Python MSSQL driver, ensuring proper handling for insertion, retrieval, batching, and streaming of XML data. It also introduces a suite of tests to verify correct XML behavior, including edge cases like empty, large, and malformed XML values.MSSQL Driver Enhancements
