Idiom #103 Load XML file into struct

Read from the file data.xml and write its contents into the object x.
Assume the XML data is suitable for the type of x. 

import lxml.etree
x = lxml.etree.parse('data.xml')
using System.Xml.Linq;
XDocument x = XDocument.Load("data.xml");

Serializer ser = new Serializer(archive);
ser.deserialize(x);
import "encoding/xml"

buffer, err := os.ReadFile("data.xml")
