Position should support neighbor-anchored positions

I'm using this as a tracking bug, for the introduction of neighbor anchored
positions.  I have some patches in my tree I could upload here for examples as
to what I mean.

Right now we have Position which can hold [node, offset], but sometimes [node,
0] means "first offset in node" and sometimes it means "last offset before
node", based on whether or not editingIgnoresContent(node) returns true or not.

I plan to change this so that neighbor-anchoring or container-anchoring is
explicit in the Position object.  Then we can have a position [table, 0] which
means "first offset in the table" (which we can't currently express using a
Position object since tables are ignored content for editing).
