 Some tags that look like void elements can be added in other namespaces.
 `<input>` is a good example.

 `expects_closer` is intended to indicate whether a given should be closed
 by another tag or if it's self-closing in some way (void, "atomic," etc.).

 This `input` tag is a void tag, `expects_closer` correctly returns `true`
 on the input token:

 {{{
 <body><input>
 }}}

 This `input` tag is not a void tag. It's a tag in the `svg` namespace,
 `expects_closer` should return `false` on the input token, but it returns
 `true`:

 {{{
 <svg><input>
 }}}
