I have fixed some old rare parsing issues which were being difficult to handle.

• refactoring to support Unicode chars in the tag name
• update typing for validator error

After this release some error messages return by validator will be updated. Validator will also return line number now.

Update tagValueProcessor of js object/JSON to XML Parser to work with date value. Previously, all the values pass to this function were string and empty in case of object. Now the values are in their original data type and work for date object.

By specifying stopNodes which a list of tag names, a user can stop the parser to go in deep for parsing. Nested XML will be parsed as string as a value to the stop node.

This release is more about minor bug fixes and small features. You can check CHANGELOG.md for more detail.

• Few minor bug fixes

This is the combined release of

• Support non-English char as tag or attribute name
• update nimn ASCII chars
• fix: null value support in json to xml transformation

After this release this package will be capable to transform XML into nimn. Additionally this release add the feature to validate XML PIs and fix a minor bug while transforming JSON to xml back when a property is deleted.
