[XML-SIG] drv_javasax and InputSource

For Python, there is a somewhat generous interpretation of accepting
both file-like objects and URI strings in .parse(), it seems desirable
to continue to support this property.

The first one certainly is Jython specific; not sure whether it is a
FAQ - in any case, I don't know the answer. As for the second one: If
you have solved the first one, just use the InputSource constructor
that expects an InputStream.
