Fixes references to inline SVG elements when the <base> tag is in use.

 * SVG Fixer

 * Fixes references to inline SVG elements when the <base> tag is in use.
 * Firefox won't display SVG icons referenced with
 * `<svg><use xlink:href="#id-of-icon-def"></use></svg>` when the <base> tag is on the page.

 * More info:

 *
 * One would think that setting the `xml:base` attribute fixes things,
 * but that is being removed from the platform: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=341854
