Description
See: https://www.php.net/manual/en/class.dom-document.php and https://wiki.php.net/rfc/opt_in_dom_spec_compliance
New namespaced DOM-classes have been introduced in PHP 8.4 that are better in terms of performance and spec compliance.
This should be applied to all xml-libraries extending from this one.

Research direction
Read the PHP 8.4 DOM documentation and the DOM spec compliance RFC first. Then identify all XML libraries extending this one and determine which classes require the namespaced DOM equivalents. Done means those libraries use the PHP 8.4-compliant DOM API without breaking existing behavior; run the repository's available test suite to verify compatibility.
