Bug Description

/usr/share/xubuntu-docs/index.html claims itself to be a valid XHTML file:

```
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" dir="ltr">
```

However, it has some tags not conforming XHTML standard and cannot be shown in some browsers like GNOME Web (epiphany-browser) with following error:

```
This page contains the following errors:

error on line 12 at column 8: Opening and ending tag mismatch: link line 11 and head
Below is a rendering of the page up to the first error.
```

Removing xmlns tag in <html> can fix this issue.

Ubuntu release: Ubuntu 22.04
Package version:
- xubuntu-docs 22.04
- epiphany-browser 42.4-0ubuntu1

An initial look at https://validator.w3.org/check?uri=https%3A%2F%2Fxubuntu.github.io%2Fxubuntu-docs%2Fuser%2FC%2Findex.html&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0&ss=1&outline=1&No200=1&verbose=1 may pin this on DocBook. We're possibly at the wrong point in cadence to be looking at upgrading the XSLT stylesheets we have for DocBook but that may alleviate this.
