Consider merging https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/blink/+/12e90f1c03c5782b68a7256f9b88a37563e9876f

As per the latest specification, compareDocumentPosition() should report PRECEEDING or FOLLOWING
information even if nodes are disconnected:
- http://dom.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-node-comparedocumentposition

This behavior is consistent with both IE10 and Firefox 22.

Blink was not reporting PRECEEDING or FOLLOWING in all cases. This patches makes Blink behave
as expected.
