[Bug]: `xml:map` operation when returning consecutive xml:Texts doesn't merge them together

[Poorna Gunathilaka]

Description

Consider the following code

import ballerina/io;

public function main() {
    xml x1 = xml `<a>abc</a><b>def</b>`;
    xml r = xml:map(xml:elements(x1), y => y.getChildren());
    io:println(r); // abcdef
    boolean b = xml `abcdef` == r;
    io:println(b); // false
}

The equality check here is returned false. This is due to xml:map not merging the consecutive xml:Text.
