"""Try to include style tags at the edge of the span marked as invalid
In some HTML sources the citations are styled with tags like <i> or <em>
When the citation is found in a stripped-of-tags text, the span may
leave out the opening or closing tag. When this happens and we try to
annotate the HTML, it will render invalid HTML. This happens mostly with
IdCitation, ReferenceCitation, etc.
This function will try to find opening or closing tags inmediately
preceding or following the citation span. If it finds them, it will
return the new start, end and span. If not, it will return the old ones
