Wrong order in .trigger() when DOM is modified in a handler

Description

The W3C DOM Event Model spec (http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-3-Events/#event-flow) says browsers are supposed to calculate the event propagation path in advance, so that modifications to the DOM in a handler does not affect the path. Although the liveHandler method attempts this for delegated events, .trigger() does not.

http://jsfiddle.net/dmethvin/rGyJ3/

There are still some situations where delegated events may yield a different path than directly attached ones; need to document that.

Fix #9951. Precompute path for .trigger() to match up with W3C spec.
