[PATCH 0/3] Expat and libxslt changes for core-updates

It was not that simple to make these changes for core-updates, so I'm
sending the patches for review.

For expat, I "re-fix" a bug that was fixed on master already. This
bug-fix is actually reachable from the HEAD of core-updates, but for
some reason doesn't exist at HEAD. According to MITRE the bug does
affect all currently released versions of expat:
https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2016-0718

I noticed a "left-over" patch for a bug that is apparently fixed in the
version of expat on core-updates (2.1.1), so it is deleted:
https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2015-1283

For libxslt, I update to the latest version and remove patches that are
no longer needed. The timestamp issue was addressed upstream [0] and the
bug has been fixed in this version. These patches were strangely no
longer listed in 'gnu/local.mk'.
