[Bug 3333] [XQX] stylesheet needs to generate more parenthesis

http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=3333

Obviously, the minimal fix is a modification to the stylesheet's template that
processes the <xqx:flworExpr/> element -- that fix, of course, is to insert an 
   <xsl:value-of select="$LPAREN"/> element preceding the template's
<xsl:apply-templates/> instrucction, and an <xsl:value-of select="$RPAREN"/>
after.  I am making that change regardless. 

A second change, suggested by
http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=3333#c2, would remove the
<xqx:parenthesizedExpr/> element entirely.  I am slightly reluctant to do so,
in spite of the comment in
http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=3333#c3 that it serves no "useful
purpose for XQueryX to retain knowledge of where the parentheses appear...".
There is no intent of "retaining knowledge", which implies that such knowledge
exists; XQueryX is not intended to be produced as a transformation from an
XQuery. The question is whether the author of an XQueryX document wishes to
explicitly parenthesize an expression. 

In spite of my reluctance, I yield to my reviewers and have removed the
<xqx:parenthesizedExpr/> element.
