Gone from where?

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/17/xml2.html

xml_valid ( document text ) → boolean

Parses the given document and returns true if the document is 
well-formed XML. (Note: this is an alias for the standard PostgreSQL 
function xml_is_well_formed(). The name xml_valid() is technically 
incorrect since validity and well-formedness have different meanings in 
XML.)
