Ensure that expects_closer returns false on tags that look like void HTML tags, but are actually not void tags in foreign content.

Some tags that look like void elements can be added in other namespaces. <input> is a good example.

expects_closer is intended to indicate whether a given should be closed by another tag or if it's self-closing in some way (void, "atomic," etc.).

This input tag is a void tag, expects_closer correctly returns true on the input token:

<body><input>
This input tag is not a void tag. It's a tag in the svg namespace, expects_closer should return false on the input token, but it returns true:

<svg><input>
