Since the test will be disabled, we should also remove the related code that is not used anymore.

Now the spec. says:
"The preload attribute is an enumerated attribute. The following table lists the keywords and states for the attribute — the keywords in the left column map to the states in the cell in the second column on the same row as the keyword. The attribute can be changed even once the media resource is being buffered or played; the descriptions in the table below are to be interpreted with that in mind."

We should remove the don't-preload-less-when-loading-resource rule.

OK. Small fix. Let's take this on Aurora to clean up the intermittent test failure.
