Drop candidates with w descriptors if wis unsupported

[eeeps]

Per #239, given:

<img src="fallback.jpg" srcset="a.jpg 100h, b.jpg 200h" />

In a browser that doesn’t support h, we drop both candidates and the src is picked.

But given:

<img src="fallback.jpg" srcset="a.jpg 100w, b.jpg 200w" />

In a browser that supports x, but not w, (like, oh, iOS 8 Safari, or Safari 7.1), behavior is unspecified. I think it should be spec'd to mirror h; drop both srcset candidates and fall back to the src.

I think @yoavweiss already made this change in WebKit:

...shame it didn't make it into the released versions.

It occurs to me that maybe I should have titled this “Drop candidates with only w descriptors if w is unsupported”. Not that anyone should be writing stuff like srcset="a.jpg 2x 320w", but if they do, it probably makes sense to use the 2x & candidate (?)

Browsers shouldn't be partially implementing in the first place; they just need to support w descriptors properly. (But I'll comment on the other thread, where I have a more relevant opinion.)
