wikitext transclusions don't produce "start / stop" info in parse-tree

[pmario]

The following code should produce start / stop info .. At least the info that is available with the regexp matches.

{{test}}

{{{[tag[HelloThere]]|tooltip}}}.xx.yyy

---

attribute start stop as with eg: list-widget is not possible atm without much more code in the parser. More code will be bad for the parse-speed.

this issue is related to: pragmas don't produce "start / end" markers in the parse-tree #6822

We should check all the wikitext parsers.

I did a bit of debugging.

• this.match.index contains the start of the whole string ... This info may be usable. a bit more testing needed.
• this.matchRegExp.lastIndex; contains the last char.

Should be fixed with PR: Add start and end properties to WikiText AST nodes for all elements. #7866

close -- this one has been fixed since then
