The old technique doesn't work in Firefox and
doesn't always work in Chrome depending on
when you call it.

Also fixes some tests that weren't overloading
the right function and were hitting the real
feature detection check

After lots of experimenting with Wireshark and
current Chrome + Firefox on Ubuntu 13.10, this is my
current understanding of the caching when preloading images
with AJAX requests:
* on Chrome, the image request always comes from browser cache
* Firefox makes two separate requests by default
* Firefox with img.crossOrigin = 'anonymous' makes two separate
requests, but the second one is a 304 (does not load the
image twice)
* when the image has already been cached by the browser (but not in
this session), Chrome skips both requests; Firefox skips the AJAX
request, but sends the normal one, and it returns with 304.
"wish I knew this when I started" things:
* the Chrome DevTools has an option to disable cache. When this is
enabled, requests in the same document context still come from
cache (so if I load the page, fire an AJAX request, then without
reloading the page, fire an AJAX request to the same URL, then the
second request will be cached), but an AJAX request - image request
pair is an exception from this.
* when using Ctrl-F5 in Firefox, requests on that page will never hit
the cache (even AJAX request fired after user activity; even if
two identical requests follow each other). When using clear cache
+ normal reload, this is not the case.
* if the image does not have an Allow-Origin header and is loaded
with crossOrigin=true, Firefox will refuse to load it. Chrome will
log an error in the console saying it refused to load it, but will
actually load it.
* Wireshark rocks.

Since there was no merge conflict and the changeset worked pre-merge, when jenkins merged the fullscreen changeset, it actually turned out to be incompatible with the new code and spews out a nasty JS error. I think from now on I'll always avoid +2ing a diff that hasn't been rebased to the latest. When looking at the diff not rebased to the latest, you just can't see the issues that might happen with the latest code merged and you certainly won't spot the potential breakage that comes with it.
In fact I think a lot of breakages we've encountered as of late were caused by this very issue.

fileUsage tests were applying styles to the fixture element, which
apparently does not get cleaned between tests. This was because
fileUsage.$container had different semantics from element.$container
(widget's own container div vs. parent container div). FileUsage
now inherits from Element to make sure behavior is consistent.

We have had this method in all Repo subclasses for a while, but sadly
it never got used and we've unintentionally crippled foreign DB repos
for some time now.

* more robust method of obtaining URL
* decouple performance logging from providers (mostly)
* ignore fake XHR object which jQuery returns for JSONP requests
* guard for CORS requests - apparently Chrome refuses to return
certain information even with an Allow-Origin: * response header.
* Resource Timing is limited to 150 results, which causes fake
misses in debug mode. There is an API to increase the limit
but it is not implemented in Chrome. I am calling it nevertheless,
maybe IE understands it (it is present in the MSDN docs at least).
This seems to work for AJAX, CORS, JSONP, image AJAX; CORS requests
return 0 for a lot of values, per spec a Timing-Allow-Origin: *
header might help that.

When the lightbox is opened, or prev/next pressed, preloads the
previous/next N images.
Technical debt introduced:
* initialization is a mess, with the viewer and the interface
randomly setting properties on each other in different phases of
execution. That got in the way and I shuffled things around
until they worked, which is obviously not the way to have a
robust system, but hopefully it will get scrapped soon anyway
in favor of a clean top-down dependency injection.

A simple task queue which can be processed or cancelled.
Will be used to handle preloading in a more robust way.
