<p>
Write an error for a given exception.

<p>
<b>Note:</b> Make sure {@link XMLErrorResponseWriter#startDocument()}
has been previously invoked to start the XML
stream document, and {@link XMLErrorResponseWriter#endDocument()} is invoked after to end it.

@param exception The exception to write an error for. It can not be {@code null}.
@throws ODataRenderException In case it is not possible to write to the XML stream.
