should provide wayland-compositor

Currently no. Not even all the compositors from the repos provide that detail. Cannot recall the reason, but last time this came up not everyone was in favour of such a thing. Was it about projects that offer support for various compositors? But all in all to add such a thing for every compositor could also result in problems if it won't support the requirements?
As long as there is no official stance I won't add such a thing in general.

Sidenote: That requests is not what OOD is for...

should not have wlroots as a dep https://archlinux.org/todo/switch-to-a-versioned-packaging-scheme-for-wlroots/

Strictly speaking it doesn't have wlroots set as dep. It depends on the so. And those .so back then were still unversioned.
Theoretically this so dep lists the correct ones from the aurweb. But also wrong ones. So I should add probably add wlroots0.17 as dep.

The build issue is fixed with libxml2-2.13.6-2, nmapper.

Do you have libxml2 2.13.6 from testing installed?
There seems to be a bug with this version, as other software depending on this also fails to compile.
