Re: [svgwg] SVGAElement all attributes except href should be as HTML i.e. not SVGAnimatedString

The Working Group just discussed `SVGAElement all attributes except href should be as HTML i.e. not SVGAnimatedString`.

<details><summary>The full IRC log of that discussion</summary>
&lt;AmeliaBR> Topic: SVGAElement all attributes except href should be as HTML i.e. not SVGAnimatedString<br>
&lt;BogdanBrinza> GitHub: https://github.com/w3c/svgwg/issues/315<br>
&lt;BogdanBrinza> https://www.chromestatus.com/metrics/feature/popularity#V8SVGAElement_Target_AttributeGetter<br>
&lt;BogdanBrinza> the usage of the target attribute seems low, but growing<br>
&lt;BogdanBrinza> not sure if that's because of the low absolute value and statistical noise<br>
&lt;BogdanBrinza> Proposal: change all attributes (except for href) to be consistent with HTML<br>
&lt;BogdanBrinza> that includes target<br>
&lt;BogdanBrinza> AmeliaBR: target has been included since SVG 1.1, so the argument could be keep it as it is<br>
&lt;BogdanBrinza> dstorey: Preference to keep consistency and potentially add mixin in HTML<br>
&lt;BogdanBrinza> krit: Generally usage seems to be very low and we might prefer to optimize for the future - which in this case might be aligning with HTML<br>
&lt;BogdanBrinza> Resolution: Change all SVGAElement attributes to be consistent with HTML except for href<br>
