editor.getSelectedHtml returns incorrect data

[DmitryKrekota]

Because of clipboard plugin use editor.getSelectedHtml, this bug can reproduce with copy/paste. I also created plugin "bugdemo" to show how to repriduce the bug. You can download ckeditor with plugin "bugdemo" here: ​https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bxtv10NlSOEbenRvWUtJeGhqV2c/view?usp=sharing Also, see vidio record with bug reproducing: ​https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bxtv10NlSOEbVU9POE9RenZkblE/view

Problem can be reproduced in Firefox and Webkit browsers. IE and Edge work fine.

I was able to reproduce it with block, inline elements and plain text (it is inside P by default). Basically you need to:

1. Press New Page to clear editor contents.
2. Type few words and select first one with mouse
3. Click on dropdown to open it and close it with escape
4. Press Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V

Result: whole text will be pasted.
