Re: [w3c/selection-api] Throw correct exceptions from collapse/selectAllChildren on detached doctypes (#86)

I should add that usually when browsers disagree, we have a strong preference for not throwing, but I think maybe this is different because half of the not-throwing behavior is due to the fact that WebKit doesn't ever throw when setting a range endpoint to a doctype.  This is clearly not required by web compatibility.  If you leave out WebKit from the doctype cases, behavior is 100% in favor of throwing in most cases.  But on second thought, it's always easier not to throw, so maybe the spec should say never to throw.  @rniwa, what do you think?

This issue blocks [Mozilla's implementation](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1359397), which I guess therefore won't get done until August.
