instantiate `Tag` objects directly, but it's not necessary unless
you're adding entirely new markup to a parsed document. Most of
the constructor arguments are intended for use by the `TreeBuilder`
that's parsing a document.
:param parser: A `BeautifulSoup` object representing the parse tree this
`Tag` will be part of.
:param builder: The `TreeBuilder` being used to build the tree.
:param name: The name of the tag.
:param namespace: The URI of this tag's XML namespace, if any.
:param prefix: The prefix for this tag's XML namespace, if any.
:param attrs: A dictionary of attribute values.
:param parent: The `Tag` to use as the parent of this `Tag`. May be
the `BeautifulSoup` object itself.
:param previous: The `PageElement` that was parsed immediately before
parsing this tag.
:param is_xml: If True, this is an XML tag. Otherwise, this is an
HTML tag.
:param sourceline: The line number where this tag was found in its
source document.
:param sourcepos: The character position within ``sourceline`` where this

:param can_be_empty_element: If True, this tag should be
represented as <tag/>. If False, this tag should be represented
as <tag></tag>.
:param cdata_list_attributes: A dictionary of attributes whose values should
be parsed as lists of strings if they ever show up on this tag.
:param preserve_whitespace_tags: Names of tags whose contents
should have their whitespace preserved if they are encountered inside
this tag.
:param interesting_string_types: When iterating over this tag's
string contents in methods like `Tag.strings` or
`PageElement.get_text`, these are the types of strings that are
interesting enough to be considered. By default,
`NavigableString` (normal strings) and `CData` (CDATA

namespace prefixes to URIs, as of the point in the parsing process when
this tag was encountered. This can be used later to
construct CSS selectors.
