[Bug 29501] [xp31] Colon is not in the list of non-terminal symbols

https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=29501

--- Comment #2 from Michael Kay <mike@saxonica.com> ---
Benito pointed out that I didn't read carefully enough. The list does include
":" (written out as (colon), for some reason).

The other comment, about treating it like "." and "-", remains.

We do have a note in 3.11.1.1

Note:

In some circumstances, it is necessary to include whitespace before or after
the colon to ensure that this grammar is correctly parsed; this arises for
example when the MapKeyExpr ends with a name and the MapValueExpr starts with a
name.

But it's a Note, it's very unspecific about what the exact rules are, and it's
in the wrong place.
