[RC3] before-after-table-whitespace-001 invalid

That testcase relies on CSS3 double-colon grammar. The 4th sub-test

.gen3::before {
  content: url(missing-image.png);
}

is going, as we know, to generate a real blank-whitish missing image
icon in Chrome 6, Safari 5 and Konqueror 4.5.3 and also a textual
[Image] indication of unretrievable/unavailable image in Opera 10.63.
None of this is considered or predicted by the webpage reference
http://test.csswg.org/suites/css2.1/20101027/html4/before-after-table-whitespace-001-ref.htm

The testcase, as is, requires corrections, improvements; it is an
rehabilitable (can be rehabilitated) testcase.

===============

Nota bene: many chapter 12 on generated content uses and relies on CSS 3
double-colon grammar.
