Summary Allow focus ring quads to be computed relative to container

Currently, it's possible to compute the absolute focus ring quads, but with a minor tweak it would be possible to compute them relative to container as well. The BlackBerry port has always rendered the focus ring ("tap highlight", we call it) as a separate overlay to avoid re-rendering the page when the user taps a link. This is an optimisation. We're now switching to an approach where the tap highlight overlay is a child of the container that contains the tapped element. This allows our tap highlight overlay to move along with scrollable divs, frames, fixed pos items etc despite being a separate overlay. Unfortunately, the tap highlight computations currently do not support transforms, and this patch will not change that. I want to put the patch up for review here to get your feedback.
