I think I might have fixed the 
  TestInsertAfter(MonoTests.System.Xml.XmlNodeTests) "#InsertAfter.BadPositionButNoError.1"
error.

When InsertAfter remaps the call into an InsertBefore(xxx, null), to
insert it at the end, then InsertBefore skips the checking if it is
being inserted around a DocumentElement. Surely (non-whitespace)
Elements/Characters/EntityReferences cannot occur anywhere outside the
DocumentElement so I have removed this test. 

I have also put in a comment regarding inserting whitespace nodes.
Whitespace outside the DocumentElement is ignored in DOM, but I am
unsure of its status in the CLR library. I believe that you should be
able to insert whitespace nodes here to assist in layout before
serialising despite the fact that they are insignificant in the current
represenations. What do you think about this?
