23.0.50; XML conf file

[Peter Dyballa]

Hello!

When launching GNU Emacs with -Q and opening an XML file file.conf,  
then the buffer is in Conf[Space] mode, which is the wrong mode.

To determine conf-mode there should these modern days first be a  
check whether some XML typical constructs like ``<!´´ or ``</´´ or  
words like ``DOCTYPE´´ are used.
