tools: add helper method for printing an XML document

The trivial case of fully printing an XML document is boring, but
this helper does more by allowing an XPath expression to be given.
It will then print just the subset of nodes which match the
expression. It either print each match as a standalone XML doc
or can put them into one new XML doc wrapped woith <nodes>...</nodes>
