[whatwg] Node inDocument

[Erik Arvidsson]

After thinking more about this we believe that moving contains to Node
is a better alternative. The problem with Node inDocument is that it
does not say which document it is in so code would need to also check
ownerDocument to be robust in the presence of frames and multiple
windows.
