Fix the BY {REF,VALUE} clause of XMLEXISTS/XMLTABLE
This clause is used to indicate the passing mode of a XML document, but
we were doing it wrong: we accepted BY REF and ignored it, and rejected
BY VALUE as a syntax error. The reality, however, is that documents are
always passed BY VALUE, so rejecting that clause was silly. Change
things so that we accept BY VALUE.
BY REF continues to be accepted, and continues to be ignored.
