Description
When an instrument definition file, parameter file or a grouping file is read and such a file contains invalid XML syntax i.e. a missing forward slash e.g. <element><element> instead of <element></element> present message along the lines "Invalid XML syntax line ...." rather than just "Unable to parse file".
Hopefully poco provides some facility for this.

(In [9446]) More intelligent error message when loading a number of XML format including LoadInstrument. In particular when defining instrument defintion files (IDFs) is it quite easy to by mistake add not well-formed XML. Now output sensible error messages informing about such mistakes and at what lines this occur.
To test this e.g. take any of the IDF and put in nonsense XML. re #1813.
