Runtime error with blank nodes

[ahankinson]

If you pass a blank node name to the Svg.node method it will compile, but will crash the browser.

import Svg

Svg.node "" [] []

Results in:

Uncaught TypeError: Failed to execute 'removeChild' on 'Node': parameter 1 is not of type 'Node'.

    at app.js:4081:16
    at updateIfNeeded (app.js:4615:56)

It looks like this also results in an infinite loop, since the number of errors keeps going until you refresh the page.

Linking some of the other issues about setting some kind of DOM string to an invalid value throws an error:

• Runtime error when assigning type_ to textarea html#215
• Runtime exception when using invalid characters or "" as attribute name html#251
• Adding type_ attribute to textarea throws error in runtime virtual-dom#181
• Runtime exception on invalid (type_ "xyz") attribute virtual-dom#106
• Adding type_ attribute to textarea throws error in runtime virtual-dom#181

The infinite loop is fixed here: elm/browser#138
