Return all contents of an xml tree, without the outside tags.

e.g. if node is parse of
|

"<html a="b" foo="bar">Hi <div>there <span>Bruce</span><b>!</b></div><html>"

should return

|
|
|
|
# node.tostring() -- generates xml for the node, including start
|
|
# and end tags. We'll use this for the children.
|
|
# node.text -- the text after the end of a start tag to the start
|
|
# of the first child
|
|
# node.tail -- the text after the end this tag to the start of the
|
|
# next element.

# filter removes possible Nones in texts and tails
