A new draft of Media Queries has been published. This no longer allows the
empty string or a series whitespace characters as being a valid media query.
HTML5 needs the following changes:

1. Its concept of "valid media query" should stay the same. (The change is that
the empty string and a series of whitespace characters becomes non-conforming.)

2. It needs a concept of parsing a media query value that should probably be
used by <link media>, <a media>, <area media>, and <source media>. This should
treat the empty string or a string consisting of just whitespace characters as
meaning "all" for backwards compatibility. Everything else should be parsed as
per the Media Queries specification.

3. <source media> needs to be updated to state that if the attribute is omitted
it defaults to all.
