Description:
------------
CharacterData nodes implement the new DomChildNode interface, but the DOMChildNode::remove() method doesn't work.

See the provided test script.
Text, comments and CDATA nodes should be removed. They are not.


Test script:
---------------
<php

$doc = new \DOMDocument();
$doc->loadXML('<a>foo</a>');
$doc->documentElement->firstChild->remove();
echo $doc->saveXML($doc->documentElement);

Expected result:
----------------
<a></a>

Actual result:
--------------
<a>foo</a>

confirmed, also for other nodes that extend DOMCharacterData. DOMCharacterData::remove does not seem to use dom_child_node_remove helper function that was added at some point, but the code looks the same and correct anyways. Probably a mistake in the assumptions how DOMCharacterData nodes fit into libxml hierarchy. I will look into this over the next days.
