Bug#18201: XML: ExtractValue works even if the xml

fragment is not well-formed xml

Problem:
- ExtractValue silently returned NULL if a wrong XML value is passed.
- In some cases "unexpected END-OF-INPUT" error was not detected, and
  a non-NULL result could be returned for a bad XML value.

Fix:
- Adding warning messages, to make user aware why NULL was returned.
- Missing "unexpected END-OF-INPUT" error is reported now.
