Return the input node or a parent matching the given aTagName,
starting the search at the supplied node.
An example of use is for testing if a node is in a table cell
given a selection anchor node.
aTagName | The HTML tagname Special input values: Use "href" to get a link node (an "A" tag with the "href" attribute set) Use "anchor" or "namedanchor" to get a named anchor node (an "A" tag with the "name" attribute set) Use "list" to get an OL, UL, or DL list node Use "td" to get either a TD or TH cell node |

NS_EDITOR_ELEMENT_NOT_FOUND if an element is not found (passes NS_SUCCEEDED macro) |
Return an element only if it is the only node selected,
