r21655 allows us to serve up .wasm files as application/wasm and the browser will then load them correctly.

The patch above adds stubs for decoding vp8 in javascript using ​ogv.js.
I just can't figure out how we're supposed to use this undocumented api.

It's really impressive, but unfortunately we can't feed data into the decoder until this is implemented: ​issue 359: Implement OGVMediaSource (Media Source Extensions / MSE shim).
