[Bug 17271] <track> Move crossorigin="" to <track>

[[
If URL is not the empty string, perform a potentially CORS-enabled fetch of
URL, with the mode being the state of the media element's crossorigin content
attribute, the origin being the origin of the media element's Document, and the
default origin behaviour set to fail.
]]

I think this is problematic for several reasons:

* There might not be a media element.
* You might want to allow cross-origin fetching of the video but not of the
tracks, or vice versa.

I think it would be better to have a crossorigin attribute on <track> and let
the track load algorithm look only at that.
