Summary HTML parser phone number handling should better account for MathML

HTMLTreeBuilder::processCharacterBufferForInBody avoids calling phone number handling for several elements, but MathML is not part of the list. It probably should be. As should SVG. What's also weird is that HTMLTreeBuilder::linkifyPhoneNumbers does a tree walk, but its caller does one too through shouldParseTelephoneNumbersInNode. Those should probably be deduplicated.
