patch to use SAX instead of DOM xml writer

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US)

When there are a large number of defects it becomes impossible to save/view
them due to a massive amount of memory use.

Encountered after an analysis run with around 250,000 defects; all rules
enabled on .NET Framework 2 profile.

Looking at the XmlResultWriter/HtmlResultWriter code it seems a DOM tree is
created before serializing to disk; I have created a patch that uses the SAX
commands directly; providing much faster output and without the memory
overhead.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
