[Bug 1580318] [NEW] [SRU] hoteldruid now depends on php-xml

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

[Impact]

 * At runtime, hoteldruid depends on APIs exposed by php-xml, which used to be part of the core php packages.
 * The version packaged in Xenial does not express this dependency and hoteldruid needs it to work correctly (month table for example is not shown as functions utf8_encode and utf8_decode are not found).

[Test Case]

@Marco, can you provide a clear test-case?
@SRU-Team, while no test case is provided yet, the fix is trivial and clear, but I will work with Marco to provide a test-case.

[Regression Potential]

 * The chance of regression is close to nil, as we are simply expressing
an actual code dependency in the packaging.

[Other Info]
 
 * There are probably other cases similar to this that will trickle in as migrated packages get more active testing in 16.04.
 * Debian unstable has applied the same change, and we are synced already in Yakkety.

New php packages have have split php-xml from core packages and
hoteldruid needs it to work correctly (month table for example is not
shown as functions utf8_encode and utf8_decode are not fuond). A
dependancy on php-xml should be added to package in Xenial Xerus (the
problem is already fixed in debian unstable).
