 HTML API: Introduce full parsing mode in HTML Processor.

 The HTML Processor has only supported a specific kind of parsing mode
 called _the fragment parsing mode_, where it behaves in the same way
 that `node.innerHTML = html` does in the DOM. This mode assumes a
 context node and doesn't support parsing an entire document.

 As part of work to add more spec support to the HTML API, this patch
 introduces a full parsing mode, which can parse a full HTML document
 from start to end, including the doctype declaration and head tags.

 Developed in https://github.com/wordpress/wordpress-develop/pull/6977
 Discussed in https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/61576
