Minor fixup for rrweb-io#1349; the 'we can avoid the check on leaf el…

…ements' optimisation wasn't being applied as `n.childNodes` was always truthy even when there were no childNodes.

Changing it to `n.childNodes.length` directly there (see rrweb-io#1402) actually caused a bug as during a mutation, we serialize the text node directly, and need to jump to the parentElement to do the check.
This is why I've reimplemented this optimisation inside `needMaskingText` where we are already had an `isElement` test
