We already getSlice which returns a ve.dm.DocumentSlice, so using
the word slice in this method is very confusing. What we are actually
doing is creating a ve.dm.Document from a range. Also remove argument
overloading as it's not particularly helpful and would make the new
name a lie.

Replaces newFromNodeReplacement(). newFromNodeReplacement was very
simplistic and didn't support metadata or internal list items, so
if you had comments or references inside of the data you were editing
(reference contents or an image caption), they'd get mangled.
With this, you can do:
newDoc = doc.getDocumentSlice( node );
// Edit newDoc
tx = ve.dm.Transaction.newFromDocumentReplace( doc, node, newDoc );
surface.change( newDoc );
and that takes care of metadata, internal list items, and things like
references that reference internal list items.
ve.dm.Document.js:
* In getDocumentSlice(), store a reference to the original document
and the number of items in its InternalList at the time of slicing
in the created slice. This is used for reconciliation when the
modified slice is injected back into the parent document with
newFromDocumentReplace().
ve.dm.InternalList.js:
* Add a method for merging in another InternalList. This provides a
mapping from old to new InternalList indexes so the linear model data
being injected by newFromDocumentReplace() can have its InternalList
indexes remapped.
ve.dm.Transaction.js:
* Replace newFromNodeReplacement() with newFromDocumentReplace()
ve.ui.MWMediaEditDialog.js, ve.ui.MWReferenceDialog.js:
* Use getDocumentSlice/newFromDocumentReplace for editing captions/refs
* Change insertion code path to insert an empty internalItem/caption, then
newFromDocumentReplace into that
* Add empty internalList to new mini-documents
ve/test/dm/ve.dm.Transaction.test.js:
* Replace newFromNodeReplacement tests with newFromDocumentReplace tests
ve-mw/test/dm/ve.dm.Transaction.test.js (new):
* Add tests for newFromDocumentReplace with mwReference nodes
ve.dm.mwExample.js:
* Add data for newFromDocumentReplace with mwReference tests
VisualEditor.hooks.php:
* Add new test file
