    Description

      When we emit the datastore root, we assert that the XML encoding is the following

      <data xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0"></data>

      This is incorrect, as RFC8040 specifies the namespace of data to be ietf-restconf:

            <restconf xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-restconf">
        <data/>
        <operations/>
        <yang-library-version>2016-06-21</yang-library-version>
      </restconf>

      This is a breaking change, hence should be done in the next major version. Note this affects only the datastore root, not mount points, as those should follow their own encapsulation.
