Re: [whatwg/dom] Atomic move operation for element reparenting & reordering (Issue #1255)

Anything using `moveBefore` will fallback to `insertBefore` no matter what. There's literally 0 use-cases for throwing. 

@dead-claudia comment from here https://github.com/whatwg/dom/pull/1307#issuecomment-2492406859
An acceptable compromise would be adding a flag to make it throw
- `parent.moveBefore(child, refNode)` fallback to `insertBefore` if needed
- `parent.moveBefore(child, refNode, true)` throws if needed

That, or every framework will have to ship the same 5 lines of code (if that doesn't make this ridiculous slow, on which case they will restore focus/selection in other ways and skip using this api)
