Description

### Expected behavior

When the Save Response Data option in the listener report file configuration window is de-selected the response data is NOT written to the XML report.

### Actual behavior

When the Save Response Data option in the listener report file configuration window is de-selected the response data is written to the XML report.

### Steps to reproduce the problem

Using JMeter version 5.5:

- Create a Thread Group
- Add and configure a HTTP Request that access and retrieves data from an API
- Add a Listener such as View Results Tree
- Select the Listener and enter a filename in the 'Write results to file / Read from file' field
- Click the Configure button to configure the report
- Select the 'Save as XML' option
- Verify that the 'Save Response Data' option is not checked
- Click the Done button
- Start the test
- After the test is complete open the Listener report file

Result:
The report file contains the API response data in the XML report file in the 'responseData' element

Expected Result:
The report file does not contain the API response data
