:target should keep matching a target element that is removed and reinserted
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=322720
Reviewed by Tim Nguyen.
A Document's target element is only set by the scroll to the fragment
algorithm; nothing sets it to null when the element is removed from the
document. WebKit cleared it on removal since 2008 (23144@main) to avoid a
dangling raw pointer, which is no longer a concern now that m_cssTarget
is a WeakPtr. Gecko already behaved this way and Chromium made the same
change in 2024, so this aligns all engines with the HTML Standard.
