no error reporting in converters/html module

[Dennis Knochenwefel]

Consider the following example Query:

  import module namespace json = "http://www.zorba-xquery.com/modules/converters/json";
  import module namespace html = "http://www.zorba-xquery.com/modules/converters/html";
  declare namespace j = "http://john.snelson.org.uk/parsing-json-into-xquery";
  let $text := "<p>" || json:parse("{""text"":""Let's get it. \ud83d\udc4a""}")/j:pair[@name="text"]/text() || "</p>"
  return html:parse($text)

Problem:

in file src/com/zorba-xquery/www/modules/converters/html.xq.src/tidy_wrapper.h function createHtmlItem(...) doesn't throw a proper error message (discovered by ghislain) which makes debugging really hard. In contrast, parse-xml throws a very helpful error:

  dynamic error [err:FODC0006]: invalid content passed to fn:parse-xml(): loader parsing error: Char 0xD83D out of allowed range;

Could html:parse report the same error?
