searching for XML elements with position predicates does not work at all when namespaces are involved. #132637

searching by integer position yields None
searching with the predicate [last()] fails with "unsupported function"
This works fine when no namespaces are involved:
\>>> ET.XML('<a><b/><b/></a>').find("./b[1]")
<Element 'b' at 0x7501101498a0>
>>> ET.XML('<a><b/><b/></a>').find("./b[last()]")
<Element 'b' at 0x7501101499e0>
>>>
