Exception thrown when Xml String contains XML

[nikkilocke]

I added XmlCommentMarkdownGenerator to my project from NuGet, and ran a compile. The output was:

1>Unhandled Exception: System.Xml.XmlException: Unknown element type "input" ---> System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException: The given key was not present in the dictionary.

Further to this, it was caused because I inadvertently used some xml inside one of my comments:

/// <summary>
/// Class to hold details of an uploaded file (from an <input type="file" />)
/// </summary>

Perhaps you should treat unrecognised xml inside comments as plain text?

Good find. I'll see if I can fix this. If I don't get to it, patches are welcome.
