Fixes the following security issue:

- CVE-2019-11068: libxslt through 1.1.33 allows bypass of a protection
  mechanism because callers of xsltCheckRead and xsltCheckWrite permit
  access even upon receiving a -1 error code.  xsltCheckRead can return -1
  for a crafted URL that is not actually invalid and is subsequently loaded.

Upstream bugtracker issue not yet public:

+Subject: [PATCH] Fix security framework bypass
+
+xsltCheckRead and xsltCheckWrite return -1 in case of error but callers
+don't check for this condition and allow access. With a specially
+crafted URL, xsltCheckRead could be tricked into returning an error
+because of a supposedly invalid URL that would still be loaded
+succesfully later on.
+
+Fixes #12.
+
+Thanks to Felix Wilhelm for the report.
