Research direction

Start with the two failing Spector payload/xml PUT tests and compare them with the passing GET tests. Trace the Rust XML handling used by those tests, then verify that both PUT cases pass while preserving the existing GET behavior and supporting XML namespaces.

Description

CodeGen

Two Spector payload/xml tests fail due to lack of XML namespace support. Specifically the PUT tests. The GET tests pass due to permissive handling in quick-xml/serde.
