The parser now recognizes <?target data> as a ProcessingInstruction and adds it to the DOM instead of a bogus comment. As per spec PR: - xml/xml-stylesheet are blocklisted, and stay a bogus comment. We can add more of these if there are compat issues. - A PI can appear wherever a comment appears. - ?> at the end ignores the ? Currently in this CL, PI targets are constrained to /^[A-Za-z][A-Za-z0-9-]*$/. Added a VTS that keeps current behavior, so that we don't lose some of the existing html5lib tests while this is in development.
