This cause failure of the test "Signaling 'decode' error via endOfStream() after initialization segment has been appended and the HTMLMediaElement has reached HAVE_METADATA."

When a decode error occurs (either via an invalid playback or through explicit call to endOfStream("decode), the mediasource object is detached from the media element.

Such operation is never documented in neither the MSE nor the HTML5 media element.
the only time the mediasource is to be detached from the media element is described in: 
https://w3c.github.io/media-source/index.html#mediasource-detach

and is " where the media element is going to transition to NETWORK_EMPTY"
I've opened bug https://github.com/w3c/media-source/issues/162 and https://github.com/w3c/web-platform-tests/issues/3726

While we do have a bug regardless, in that we always detach the mediasource from the media element whenever an error occurs.

We still fail the WPT test as it assumes that the mediasource should be detached when readyState  is HAVE_NOTHING ; which to me is incorrect. it should be detached regardless
This part of the spec related to the events fired, has about the "emptied" event:
"A media element whose networkState was previously not in the NETWORK_EMPTY state has just switched to that state (either because of a fatal error during load that's about to be reported, or because the load() method was invoked while the resource selection algorithm was already running)."

which seems to indicate that a fatal error during load (which would cause error to be set to MEDIA_ERR_SRC_NOT_SUPPORTED and networkState to become NETWORK_NO_SOURCE) should in fact becomes NETWORK_EMPTY.

In any case, we can assume that the mediasource should only be detached if an error occurs during the media element load algorithm

We can't remove the assertion because mOwner is valid until Shutdown() is called which also means OwnerHasError() should only be called before Shutdown(). Why do you want to remove the assertion?

> We can't remove the assertion because mOwner is valid until Shutdown() is called which also means OwnerHasError() should only be called before Shutdown(). Why do you want to remove the assertion?

OwnerHasError is only ever called from the SourceBuffer code.
Currently, OwnerHasError is in effect never called because of https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/dom/media/mediasource/SourceBuffer.cpp#492
IsAttached() would return false.

Currently, as the MediaSourceDecoder is always destroyed whenever there's an error, IsAttached() happens to always return false.
If we were to enter the code OwnerHasError, then MediaDecoder::IsShutdown would always return false.

I can re-add the assertion there, it doesn't matter. As it it it can't be triggered.

I don't believe this warrant a r- however, re-adding an assert is easy. Unless you think the entire change is invalid.

The assertion is important becuase we used to have some UAF bugs where mOwner is accessed after Shutdown().
