Description
XmlElement.InnerXml is missing a setter-function, and apparently we can only read the value in AL, not set a new value.
Is this by design and is there a an alternative way to set the InnerXml without replacing the whole element?
In C# it exists. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.xml.xmlelement.innerxml?view=net-6.0
public override string InnerXml { get; set; }

Research direction
Start by reviewing the AL XmlElement.InnerXml API and compare its available operations with the linked .NET reference, which includes a setter. Determine whether assigning new inner XML without replacing the element is supported or needs a language/API change; completion should establish the expected behavior and its coverage.
