HTML API: Add expects_closer() method to HTML Processor

This patch adds a new method, WP_HTML_Processor->expects_closer() to indicate
if the currently-matched node expects to find a closing token. For example, a
DIV element expects a closing </div> tag, but an <img> expects none, because
it's a void element. Similarly, #text nodes and HTML comments only appear as
unitary nodes on the stack of open elements. Once proceeding further in the
document they are immediately removed without any closing tag.

This new method serves as a helper to indicate whether or not to expect the
closer, as this can be more complicated than it seems, and calling code
shouldn't have to build custom interpretations and implementations. Instead,
the HTML Processor ought to export its internal knowledge to make it easy for
consuming code and projects.

Developed in ​https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/pull/6600
Discussed in https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/61257

Fixes #61257.

+     * Most HTML elements expect a closer, such as a P element or
+     * a DIV element. Others, like an IMG element are void and don't
+     * have a closing tag. Special elements, such as SCRIPT and STYLE,

+     * closing as soon as the processor advances to the next token.

+     * @since 6.6.0

+     * @todo When adding support for foreign content, ensure that
