Summary: Add support for SAX skipped entity events with expat?

Initial Comment:
Could you please add support to expat's SAX driver for
calling ContentHandler.skippedEvent?

I don't have a patch, but I can suggest what changes
are needed:

sax/ExpatReader.py:

class ExpatParser:

# ...
# current code
# ...

    def skipped_entity_handler(self, *args):
        self._cont_handler.skippedEntity(args[0])

    def reset(self):
# ...
# current code
# ...
        self._parser.SkippedEntityHandler =
self.skipped_entity_handler


# and possibly add...
        self._parser.UseForeignDTD(True)
# so undefined entities will be reported as skipped.
