Title: Fix stupid defaults in safedexml.

We are dealing with ordinarry XML so threat it that way.

It was impossible to parse the following valid XML from Maltego, without
this fix, as it required the elements to be ordered according to how
they were defined in the c.m.m._Entity class.

import canari.maltego.message as msg

msg._Entity.parse('''

paterva.com

66
paterva.com

''')

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ParseError Traceback (most recent call last)
in ()
7 paterva.com
8
----> 9 ''')

352 err = "required field not found: '%s'"
% (field.field_name,)

ParseError: required field not found: 'value'
