[Bug 16953] createObjectURL and oneTimeOnly behavior should be defined in terms of stable state

OK, I've put in a "prose patch" which is now in the WD.  Review welcome:

http://www.w3.org/TR/2012/WD-FileAPI-20120712/#creating-revoking

Few things of note are:

1. autoRevoke is true by default, since there's much resistance to having
developers call revokeObjectURL.  In this model, *unless* developers include
the autoRevoke="false" dictionary member syntax with a createObjectURL call,
they don't need to call revokeObjectURL.

2. We've coupled autoRevoke behavior with stable state in HTML5.  I believe
this addresses *most* use cases, but if that assumption is invalid, please say
so.
