Example of working and broken <text> nodes in SVG when white-space is applied

When <text> node has `white-space` property set to `pre-wrap` or `pre-line` and it contains <tspan> nodes and text nodes combined (for example newline character or empty space between <tspan>) children overlap on each other - their position is not respected. When text nodes are trimmed from <text> it works properly. It works in Firefox and Chrome.

Similar bug https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=189790 related to how `white-space` behaves, but it's not about text nodes in particular.

I've attached an example, it contains three <text> nodes:
- text node without `white-space` property - working,
- text node with `white-space` property and text nodes in between - broken,
- text node with `white-space` property but without text nodes in between - working.
