Description: extract text from HTML.
How is html_text different from .xpath('//text()') from LXML or .get_text()
from Beautiful Soup ?
.
* Text extracted with html_text does not contain inline styles,
javascript, comments and other text that is not normally visible to
users;
* html_text normalizes whitespace, but in a way smarter than
.xpath('normalize-space()), adding spaces around inline elements (which
are often used as block elements in html markup), and trying to avoid
adding extra spaces for punctuation;
* html-text can add newlines (e.g. after headers or paragraphs), so that
the output text looks more like how it is rendered in browsers.
