[webservices] validation of quakeml from event web service

[Philip Crotwell]

Hi

The start of the example quakeml document from ETH looks like this, so
maybe worth emulating for the event web service. They use bed as teh
default namespace and declare a seaparate one for the initial element.
Notice the "q" namespace within <q:quakeml

Philip

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<q:quakeml xmlns="http://quakeml.org/xmlns/bed/1.2"
           xmlns:q="http://quakeml.org/xmlns/quakeml/1.2">
    <eventParameters publicID="smi:nz.org.geonet/catalog/1">
        <event publicID="smi:nz.org.geonet/event/2806038g">
