Since the HTML Processor started visiting all nodes in a document, both real and virtual, the breadcrumb accounting became a bit complicated and it's not entirely clear that it is fully reliable. In this patch the breadcrumbs are rebuilt separately from the stack of open elements in order to eliminate the problem of the stateful stack interactions and the post-hoc event queue. Breadcrumbs are greatly simplified as a result, and more verifiably correct, in this construction.
The HTML Processor internally throws an exception when it reaches HTML that it knows it cannot process, but this exception is not made available to calling code. It can be useful to extract more knowledge about why it gave up, especially for debugging purposes. In this patch, more context is added to the WP_HTML_Unsupported_Exception and the last exception is made available to calling code, if it asks.

…rithm. As part of work to add more spec support to the HTML API, this patch fills out the active format reconstruction algorithm so that more HTML can be supported in situations requiring that reconstruction, for example, when a formatting element such as an A tag or a CODE tag is implicitly closed. See Core-61576

@sirreal mind sharing any thoughts on this? I don't think it adds much other than more descriptive bailing messages, but it does structure the algorithm more and include more comments. my thinking is that this might be useful to guide us when we spend more focus on trying to handle these situations. |

This would need a @return tag about the strings and their meanings.

Type and phpdoc tweaks on walk_down.

Fix PHPdoc:

| * @param WP_HTML_Token|null $below_this_node Start traversing below this node, if provided and if the node exists. |

This is difficult to interpret and interacts with active format reconstruction in interesting ways. I think my preference would be to work on that first (#6982) then come back to this. |

Trac ticket: Core-61576
Status
This still needs work. With the added support, no new tests run. Does it do anything? We need to figure out.
Description
Improves support for the adoption agency algorithm in HTML, which re-parents nodes that appear in a different order than their corresponding tag in HTML, or when encountering certain closing elements for which no opening element exists.
This depends on resolving the issue: what do we do with nodes that are implicitly created after arriving at another tag?
