Re: [whatwg/dom] Introduce `moveBefore()` state-preserving atomic move API (PR #1307)

FWIWI I fully agree with @sorvell ... the whole point of this proposal was to simplify DOM manipulation, not to complicate it even further with tons of repeated checks or `try/catch` around nodes that might not be fully owned by the underlying logic. The fallback to `insertBefore` when it fails is inevitable, as the intent is "*to move that node in that place*", nothing else, so it'd be counter-productive to have many checks around such intent + a try/catch toplay it safely plus the inevitable `insertBefore` on the catch.
