Description
default sitemap.xml
in case if i have multilanguage sitemap with:
<xhtml:link rel="alternate" hreflang="en" href="something_en" />
<xhtml:link rel="alternate" hreflang="de" href="something_de" />
Browser shows plain text. For example, google sitemap.xml "https://www.google.com/nonprofits/sitemap.xml".
Without rel="alternate" all is human-readable.
It happens only if i have rel="alternate".
I found, that we should update in django.contrib.sitemaps\templates\sitemap.xml
xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
to
xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/xhtml11_schema.html"
I found the similar issue https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/33117, but there probably was wrong idea, about "invalid xml"

alternateis required for sitemaps that specify alternate language pages. As far as I'm aware the current implementation is in line with the Google guidelines. Moreover sitemaps doesn't need to be human-readable.
