[css-backgrounds] many Microsoft border-image tests mixing HTML4 with xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"

Greg,

Tests in section 6 (border-image) of backgrounds test suite:

All those Microsoft tests mix HTML4 doctype with 
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml". Therefore those tests will not be 
rendered as expected, at least in Chromium 69.0.3497.92 and in Epiphany 
11.0 (WebKit 605.1.15; WebKitGTK+ 2.22.0; build 3.29.92-55-gda0f38e33).

The tests' filenames extension use "htm" (*not* "xht") while the source 
code uses XHTML1. So the build system is misleaded and creates a 
non-interoperable HTML4 tests.
