This PR was triggered by scrapy-users

Actually xmliter populates a Selector with everything from the position 0 to the tag start, so if we had 100mb before the tag we want to iter it copy those 100mb across all the Selector objects. Also it just extract this info for the first tag and embed the rest on that, this can cause info crossing.

In this PR I kept the regex stuff even tho I think we should use something like iterparse.

Currently xmliter_lxml tests are failing due to it has a different API.
