Re: [WICG/webcomponents] Custom 'void' or self-closing elements (HTML parser changes) (#624)

What's wrong with a self closing custom element? Seems useful in reducing verbosity in cases like custom input fields or icon wrappers where a closing tag is not necessary.

```html
<custom-date-input  format="iso" />
<fa-icon  name="github" />
```
vs
```html
<custom-date-input  format="iso"></custom-date-input>
<fa-icon  name="github"></fa-icon>
```
Where the closing tag is unnecessary and implies to consumers that the element could contain children.
