Ensure uppercase tag names are matched correctly by the tag processor.

Ticket 62522 describes an issue where a whitespace-prefixed tag was causing problems. With the help of @SantosGuillamot and @cbravobernal, this was narrowed down to an uppercase open tag name preceded by whitespace not being recognized by the tag processor.

There was a missing "D" in the character list used by strspn to find tag openers, causing tags starting with D to be skipped by the tag processor in some circumstances.

This only appears in rare cases because the tag name must appear in the correct position (preceded by whitespace) and must start with an uppercase D. Casing is not relevant for tag names, and most tag names are lowercase in the wild.
