cloneNode() and importNode() created the clones with createElementNS(), setAttributeNS() and createAttributeNS(), which now reject a prefixed name in no namespace. Create the Element and Attr nodes directly instead.

Node.cloneNode()andDocument.importNode()raiseNamespaceErrfor DOM Level 1 nodes that have a colon in the name, for examplecreateElement("svg:rect"),setAttribute("xmlns:xsi", ...),createAttribute("a:b"), or any node of a document parsed with namespaces disabled._clone_node()rebuilt every element and attribute withcreateElementNS(),setAttributeNS()andcreateAttributeNS(), and since gh-156665 those reject a prefixed name in no namespace. The same applies tosetAttribute("xmlns", ...), which is rejected as thexmlnsattribute in the wrong namespace. This is a regression on the main branch only; 3.15 and earlier clone these nodes without error. The clones are now created directly withElementandAttr, the way the factory methods did before validation was added, so the clones of namespaced nodes are unchanged.There is no NEWS entry, since gh-156665 is not in any release yet.
