[Soot-list] Filename of XML output from tag/attribute generation

[Eric Bodden]

Hi Jiaqi.

I am not sure what the actual naming conventions are. But if you say
that the renamed file works then probably it would make sense to
include the package name. If you provide us a patch I am happy to
include it.

Cheers,
Eric
