WIP Patch
WIP patch which unfortunately causes a couple of Accessibility tests to fail. I have trouble understanding why but the reason is that we no longer seem to post a AXLiveRegionChanged notification when innerText is set. I believe that previously, those tests were relying on the optimization that was re-using the existing text node and we were posting a AXLiveRegionChanged that the RenderText's text was changed. However, with this patch, we no longer have this optimization and we always remove the existing text node then create a new one. For some reason, this does not seem to post a AXLiveRegionChanged and I do not know if this is expected or not (or why).</pre>
