Bug description:  loadXML moves entity references from attribute value to before element

Description:
------------
When an attribute value contains an entity reference (like a="&eacute;"),
loadXML() moves this entity out of the attribute, just before the owner
element.

Reproduce code:
---------------
$doc = new DOMDocument();
$xml = '<!DOCTYPE e PUBLIC "1" "2">'."\n". # DOCTYPE just to appear
well-formed
       '<e><e a="&eacute;"/></e>'."\n";
$doc->loadXML($xml);
echo '<pre>', htmlspecialchars($doc->saveXML()), '</pre>';


Expected result:
----------------
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE e PUBLIC "1" "2">
<e><e a="&eacute;"/></e>


Actual result:
--------------
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE e PUBLIC "1" "2">
<e>&eacute;<e a=""/></e>
