11377	Unify internal representation of empty anchors using fake objects	Piotrek Koszuliński	Marek Lewandowski	"Currently we use fake objects on Webkits only. This is driven by http://docs.ckeditor.com/#!/api/CKEDITOR.plugins.link-property-fakeAnchor property.

Since we've got problems with DnD of empty anchors (#11140) and branched code means harder maintenance and bigger code size, we could simplify all that by using fake objects on every browser.

=== Possible threats ===

* Empty anchor represented by fake object may not look good depending on font size of a surrounding text. A sample with different text styling should be created for easy testing.
* New issues may be introduced while simplifying code. To be tested:
  * data processing,
  * creating anchor and selection after creation,
  * discovering anchors for options in link dialog (with link type set to anchor),
  * removing anchor,
  * options in context menu,
  * editing anchors (+dbclick),
  * and finally DnD.

=== Fixes ===

* #11140
