The generated XML documents shall conform to the XML device description
schema. Generally adding a new top-level element will break this.

I think there are two solutions:

- Retrieving the XMLs one-by-one with the --alias and --position
  options, or

- Adding a --list option that adds the <EtherCATInfoList> tag
  optionally.
