Attachment: Only replace nodes in nsHTMLEditor::ReplaceOrphanedStructure if all nodes in node list are descendants of replacement node

In nsHTMLEditor::ReplaceOrphanedStructure, we loop over |aNodeArray| removing nodes and checking if it is a descendant of the replacement node. If it is not, then the loop breaks but we continue to append the replacement node onto the list. I don't understand the overall picture of what this code is trying to do but that part looks wrong. It results in the same element being in |aNodeArray| twice (the replacement node is one of the nodes in the list). This results in creating multiple InsertNodeTxn for the same node. When we undo, the first transaction for the node will succeed, but the next one will fail (because the node is no longer a child).
