[emacs-w3m:13298] <span id=a> in -halfdump output & jumping to span by id

Hi,

I noticed that in -halfdump output <span> elements with ids are not
replaced with corresponding <_id> elements.

For example, for this HTML file:

    <li id="foo">foo <span id="span">span</span>

`-halfdump` prints:

    <_id id="foo">foo <span id="span">span</span>

Expected output:

    <_id id="foo">foo <_id id="span">span</span>

These <_id> tags are used by Emacs-W3m to determine the anchors on the
page. As a result, visiting https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W3m#References
(for instance) in Emacs-W3m results in the message "No such anchor:
References" printed in the "*Messages*" buffer because Emacs-W3m does
not recognize the <span id="References"> as an anchor because of the
missing <_id>. (The anchor works correctly in W3m itself.)

Is this a problem with the halfdump or Emacs-W3m's use of it?

I attached a patch that fixes this particular case for me, but it seems
that the issue (if there is one) may be more general and if so, should
be fixed in a more general way.

Subject: [PATCH] WIP Generate <_id> tag in -halfdump for <span> with id
 property

This recognizes id properties in <span> elements and generates <_id>
tags accordingly in the -halfdump output.
