Subject: [PATCH] [CVE-2024-55549] Fix UAF related to excluded namespaces

Definitions of excluded namespaces could be deleted in
xsltParseTemplateContent. Store excluded namespace URIs in the
stylesheet's dictionary instead of referencing the namespace definition.

Thanks to Ivan Fratric for the report!

Fixes #127.
