Notes on the Saxon implementation

Implemented since Saxon 9.5; available whether or not support for XPath 3.0 is enabled. The current Saxon implementation assumes UTF-8 encoding. Saxon extends the spec by defining that an empty sequence is returned if the entry does not exists.

The EXPath ZIP module and its implementation should not be considered as stable.
