mdGesture hijacked link click events don't work with plain old anchor tags

Preconditions

• Use a mobile device (or sending a mobile user-agent header)
• jQuery is loaded

Bug

When mdGesture hijacks a link click event and decides the event should continue propagating, it passes the event to jQueryDispatchEvent which calls jQuery's trigger method. This ultimately fails because jQuery does not fire native click events. This ultimately means that clicking on simple anchor links like <a href="http://some.site.com">Link</a> doesn't work at all.

See my plunker example here to reproduce: http://plnkr.co/edit/RtuCcILOWvlQIWs89U6n?p=preview

I can replicate this without jQuery: http://codepen.io/anon/pen/zxejXe

Still present in latest code from master. See CodePen. Issue appears to be the event dispatched here;

Disabling shouldHijackClicks event fixes this as a temporary fix..
