Add container_element arg to wp_page_menu()

[stebbiv]

I have added a new argument to the wp_page_menu template tag so it replaces the container div with another HTML element.

This is useful when migrating to HTML 5 and you want to use the <nav> element.

You forgot to replace the </div>

I have updated the diff file.

A simplified diff. Now container_element simply defaults to 'div'

Refreshed patch.

I've opted for "menu_element" rather than "container_element", as container suggest a separate container outside of the menu when compared to wp_nav_menu.

In 34280:

Add an argument to wp_page_menu(), 'menu_tag', which defaults to div but can be overridden to allow HTML5 tags like nav.

Fixes #10968.

In [34280], it looks like $tag is created but not used. The attached patch​ would also add $menu_tag to the changelog.

We could also automatically use a nav element if the current theme supports html5.

s/menu_tag/container + .2

[DrewAPicture]

Let's also create a little parity with wp_nav_menu and use container for the argument name instead of menu_tag.

10968.patch​ combines @dlh's .2 patch with the argument name change.

In 34307:

After [34280], rename menu_tag arg to container, fix docs.

Props DrewAPicture.
Fixes #10968.
