mSourceLoadCandidate points to the child of the media element, and once
the mParent is made strong, there is a cycle which cycle collector doesn't know
about.
Attached patch patchSplinter Review
The patch has the assumption that if mSourceLoadCandidate is set null
before NotifyLoadError or DecodeError, we have actually unlinked, and
should not call QueueLoadFromSourceTask, since that takes a strong
ref to the ownerDocument (which would cause leaks again).
