Description

XMLParser has option transformTagName, which allows to mutate tag names on parsing. Similar option would be very useful for XMLBuilder too.

Example usecase:

const builder = new XMLBuilder({
  arrayNodeName: 'book',
  transformTagName: (tag) => tag.toUpperCase()
})

const xml = builder.build([{ author: 'Joe Doe', title: 'Great book'}]);

would produce:

<book>
  <AUTHOR>Joe Doe</AUTHOR>
  <TITLE>Great book</TITLE>
</book>

Research direction

Start at the XMLBuilder entry point and compare its tag-name handling with XMLParser's existing transformTagName option. Add the builder option so the example uppercases child tags, then verify the generated XML matches the documented output.
