Indicate link_to creates an anchor element

Browse Source 
The `link_to` helper generates an HTML anchor element (consisting of opening and closing anchor tags and an element body). The docs currently state the a link tag is generated (which would indicate a tag like `<link>`, which is another valid HTML tag), so this change clarifies that an anchor element is actually generated.
