BUG: SVG <metadata> namespaces

When parsing an SVG document that includes a metadata element, if that
element has a namespace that is not supported by Amaya (e.g. RDF) it stops
parsing.

Example file: http://jigteam.w3.org/2001/08/imagePictures/001.svg

This is blocking some work I am trying to do on accessibility, and is anyway
an important SVG accessibility feature. I think that the spec allows the
browser to just ignore the children of the metadata element and still
conform.

cheers
