  Direct Known Subclasses:
    `XmlElemRef`, `XmlPropRef`

      public abstract class XmlRef
      extends AstNode

  Base class for E4X XML attribute-access or property-get expressions. Such expressions can take a variety of forms. The general syntax has three parts:
  1. optional: an `@` (specifying an attribute access)
  2. optional: a namespace (a `Name`) and double-colon
  3. required: either a `Name` or a bracketed [expression]
  The property-name expressions (examples: `ns::name`, `@name`) are represented as `XmlPropRef` nodes. The bracketed-expression versions (examples: `ns::[name]`, `@[name]`) become `XmlElemRef` nodes.

  This node type (or more specifically, its subclasses) will sometimes be the right-hand child of a `PropertyGet` node or an `XmlMemberGet` node. The `XmlRef` node may also be a standalone primary expression with no explicit target, which is valid in certain expression contexts such as `company..employee.(@id &lt; 100)` - in this case, the `@id` is an `XmlRef` that is part of an infix '<' expression whose parent is an `XmlDotQuery` node.

      Return the namespace. May be `@null`.

    - #### setNamespace

          public void setNamespace​(Name namespace)

      Sets namespace, and sets its parent to this node. Can be `null`.

    - #### isAttributeAccess

          public boolean isAttributeAccess()

      Returns `true` if this expression began with an `@`-token.

    - #### getAtPos
