[xmlsec] Question with code for xmlencryption

[Aleksey Sanin]

Any questions about xmlsec should go to the list :)

1) The template in encDataNode is not attached to the doc until the
xmlSecEncCtxXmlEncrypt() function is called. Thus you will not see
these new nodes in the "xmlDocDump(stdout,doc);". Try
"xmlElemDump(stdout,doc,encDataNode );" instead.

2) xmlSecEncCtxXmlEncrypt() function does all the XML Encryption things
and then it places the template from encDataNode in the correct place
in the doc structure.
