[Webtest] [dev] source cleanup: xsl document()

the problem is that current state is not good: the xml file is not well
formed (look at all messages generated by the xslt), the dtd is not
complete.

Furthermore, I think that it's more readable, if information concerning
an example are located on one place in the file.

In fact we should go some steps further: 
- remove the perl transformation and perform a good xsl transformation
on an xml sample file to produce a well formatted example
- generate all this stuff automagically from the java files. When the
functionnality of a step change, the doc should change too. The easiest
way to perform this is to have the doc extracted from the java file...
using xdoclet for instance.
