Another patch, this time not Win32-related. This works around the
annoying "lazy loading" technique, which sets src to a placeholder
image then uses JavaScript to fetch the real images after the pages
load.

Here's the diff: http://pastebin.com/wyP32Ukj
(sorry it's not hg diff; I don't have access from school)

I know Dillo aims to strictly follow standards, but I don't think it's
a standards violation per se, so much as a trick too clever for its
own good. I personally feel this helps the democratization of
information access more than it hurts standards compliance, since
otherwise the information might not be available until/unless Dillo
implements JavaScript support. You may, of course, disagree...

Cheers,
~Benjamin
