Revert "Fix phpGH-11404: DOMDocument::savexml and friends ommit xmlns="" declaration for null namespace, creating incorrect xml representation of the DOM"

This reverts commit 7eb3e9c.

Although the fix follows the spec, it causes issues because a lot of old
code assumes the incorrect behaviour PHP had since a long time.
We cannot do this yet, especially not in a stable release.
We revert this for the time being.
See phpGH-11428.
