Re: IE9 fails to set image dimensions after image load

The fix (as noted on issue #6848):

the load handler *MUST* be set prior to the IMG's src attribute *and*
the IMG *MUST* be added to the DOM first. This is because IE loads
the image asynchronously as soon as the src attribute is set. So you
need to do this:

Image image = new Image();
image.addLoadHandler(new LoadHandler() { ... });
image.getElement().getStyle().setVisibility(Style.Visibility.HIDDEN);
RootPanel.get().add(image);
img.setUrl("android.png");

Also, IE (at least IE6 as I remember) doesn't calculate dimensions for
objects with display:none, which is why I changed the call
to .setVisible() to .getStyle().setVisibility(...);
