Common Functionality - DOM in Common Functionality 7.2

A set of functions to process and alter DOM markup.

Justification: PHP DOM is an effective means to process markup. However, it is lacking some functionality. For example, PHP DOM does not provide a function to change the type of an element.

Drupal core does not provide a standard means to utilize PHP DOM. There is some functionality defined in the filter module, but this is limited to the filter module. The filter module should not be forced to be enabled if the functionality of the filter module is not needed.

The cf_http module previously used regular expressions to manipulate html markup. However, cf_http is older, so to avoid forcing a new dependency, using cf_dom is optional and only performed when the cf_dom class is properly loaded.
