[Bug 9895] HTMLImageElement's "complete" attribute definition implies immediate image decoding

The only issue with synchronous decoding is that decoding can be slow, and we
try to avoid baking in anything that might block the main thread doing
something slow. However, I guess I could make the spec allow you to fire
load/set complete after you've decoded if you wanted to, in which case UAs
could pick either behaviour at will and there'd be no big problem here. So I'll
do what I said in comment 5 but allow decoding before setting complete, at UA
discretion.
