Bug #8685: Problems of the example of REXM::Attribute#namespace

The exmaple of the comment document of REXML::Attribute#namespace has some problems.

• An old style hash literal is used.
• The example really does not use EXML::Attribute#namespace
  A patch to fix the example is attached to this ticket.

@ohai Thank you! It seems you removed an example for #add_attributes

Why was this removed?

This is because

• the example is a part the document of REXM::Attribute#namespace, not a part of REXML::Element#add_attributes
• REXML::Element#add_namespace is a better way to add a new namespace rather than add_attribute
