 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="58925"
 HTML API: Parse DOCTYPE tokens and set HTML parser mode accordingly.

 This patch adds until-now missing code to parse the structure of HTML
 DOCTYPE declarations. The DOCTYPE is mostly unused but can dictate the
 document compatability mode, which governs whether CSS class names match
 in a ASCII-case-insensitive way or not, and whether TABLE elements close
 an open P element.

 The DOCTYPE information is made available through a new method on the Tag
 Processor, `get_doctype_info()`.
