Check for invalid redeclarations of predefined entities

Implement section "4.6 Predefined Entities" of the XML 1.0 spec and
check whether redeclarations of predefined entities match the original
definitions.

Note that some test cases declared

    <!ENTITY lt "<">

But the XML spec clearly states that this is illegal:

> If the entities lt or amp are declared, they MUST be declared as
> internal entities whose replacement text is a character reference to
> the respective character (less-than sign or ampersand) being escaped;
> the double escaping is REQUIRED for these entities so that references
> to them produce a well-formed result.

Also fixes #217 but the connection is only tangential. The integer
overflow discovered by fuzzing was more related to the fact that various
parts of the parser disagreed on whether to prefer predefined entities
over their redeclarations. The whole situation is a mess and even
depends on legacy parser options. But now that redeclarations are
validated, it shouldn't make a difference.

As noted in the added comment, this is also one of the cases where
overly defensive checks can hide interesting logic bugs from fuzzers.
