`xmlSecNodeSetTreeWithoutComments` | nodes set = nodes in the list and all their subtress but no comment nodes.
`xmlSecNodeSetTreeInvert` | nodes set = all document nodes minus nodes in the list and all their subtress.
`xmlSecNodeSetTreeWithoutCommentsInvert` | nodes set = all document nodes minus (nodes in the list and all their subtress plus all comment nodes).
`xmlSecNodeSetList` | nodes set = all nodes in the chidren list of nodes sets.
