active form element markers are never removed

This affects the following test case (and probably many others:

<table><b><td></table>foo
Minefield:
| <html>
|   <head>
|   <body>
|     <b>
|     <table>
|       <tbody>
|         <tr>
|           <td>
|     <b>
|       "foo"


WebKit trunk:
| <html>
|   <head>
|   <body>
|     <b>
|     <table>
|       <tbody>
|         <tr>
|           <td>
|     "foo"

In looking to fix our behavior to match mozilla, I realized the reason we don't
make "foo" bold, is that there is still a marker on the active form elements
list after completion of the table.

Interestingly enough, for:

<b><table><td></table>foo

Both Minefield and TOT WebKit agree:
| <html>
|   <head>
|   <body>
|     <b>
|       <table>
|         <tbody>
|           <tr>
|             <td>
|       "foo"
