Do not merge yet - we need to create a new html5ever release. The html5ever bump also includes encoding indicators, which we handle in the most minimal way possible here. They will be handled properly by #41730 Companion PR for servo/html5ever#719 --------- Signed-off-by: Simon Wülker <simon.wuelker@arcor.de>

The current way we track the enabled selectedcontent element of the nearest ancestor select is wrong (see #712 (comment)). This change moves most of the code for
maybe clone an option into selectedcontentintoTreeSink, removing the need to track said element.Hopefully the amount of code needed to provide a reasonable (yet still incorrect!) implementation of the new method in
rcdomis enough to convince everyone that we don't want to handle this inside html5ever - it needs very tight integration with the DOM, much more so than anything else we currently have.Merging this change will also require a new breaking release. It is unfortunate to bump the version again so soon, but the current version has major issues, see #560 (comment).
