Closes #105 together with elm/virtual-dom#187
The code already sets
__VirtualDom_divertHrefToAppbefore each render, so that<a>elements created during the render can get a click listener that directs the link click to theupdatefunction, letting it decided what should happen. https://github.com/elm/browser/blob/1.0.2/src/Elm/Kernel/Browser.js#L81-L87This PR also sets
__VirtualDom_divertHrefToAppbefore virtualization, so that<a>HTML elements that are picked up by Elm during initialization also can get their click listener – which is implemented in elm/virtual-dom#187.Note to those following along: This PR is included in https://github.com/lydell/browser/tree/safe, which is part of https://github.com/lydell/elm-safe-virtual-dom.
