Support libxml2>=2.14? #6

Description

@ChristianRothQC

libxml2 versions >=2.14 (March 2025) switched from libxml2.so.2 -> libxml2.so.16 and libxml2.so.2 is no longer available on newer systems.

Would it make sense to update to libxml2.so.16. Recent distributions (such as ubuntu questing/resolute) now ship the newer libxml2.so.16.
