Blogspot short rss feed descriptions come in as atom:summary

I've got a blogspot feed that I'm pulling in and the feed is set to use the "short" configuration (cut off at 400 characters). For some reason this changes the feed so that the description is showing up as "atom:summary" instead of "description" or "summary." This caused all of the descriptions for this feed to disappear. Adding a quick case for that element seemed to fix the problem.

I wasted some time tracking this down so I thought I'd post. Minor issue, Not sure if this is something dumb that blogspot is doing or if this is happening in the parsing (I didn't actually see the key for that element with the "atom:" prefix when I looked at the raw feed). A very rough patch attached (made against my svn so might fail testing). Needs review.

    No, it's no longer an issue. The Laminas feed reader supports Atom feeds. The feed mentioned in #6 is still available. All of its item summaries were imported with no problem.

    If anyone is still experiencing an issue with the contrib version of Aggregator, then please feel free to re-open the issue.
