To formalize they are now XML-compliant (with some asterisks.)
Also to help syntax highlighters work on them to make their content more
readable.
Also:
- Delete empty comment decorations.

The threee tags `<name>`, `</name>` and `<command>` were frequently used
with a leading space that this removes. The reason this habbit is so
widespread in testcases is probably that they have been copy and pasted.
Hence, fixing them all now might curb this practice from now on.
Closes#12028
The proxy parser function strips off trailing slashes off the proxy name
which could lead to a mistaken zero length proxy name which would be
treated as no proxy at all by subsequent functions!
This is now detected and an error is returned. Verified by the new test
1329.
