WebKit+SVG should have common code to validate uri references

The SVG spec defines exactly what sort of elements can reference other elements in the SVG spec.  
Although we do some checking, we don't have a nice consistant model.  I think finding a nice way to 
implement this (with a virtual function on SVGElement?) could be a win for both code clarity and spec 
conformance.

For a list of which elements are allowed to map to which others:
