Summary: Serializer doesn't create DOCTYPE correctly

Initial Comment:
The 4DOM serializer doesn't generate DOCTYPE lines
properly. If the doctype node doesn't have a system or
public id, no "<!DOCTYPE..." line is generated. The
code in dom/ext/Printer.py is quite clear:

    def visitDocumentType(self, doctype):
        if not doctype.systemId and not
doctype.publicId: return

which is wrong. It should print the "<!DOCTYPE
rootname>" line and then exit.
