popstate event is only fired when navigating back to a live document

according to
http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/Overview.html#activating-state-object-entries, the
popstate event should be fired after the load event.  the implication is that
it should be possible to reload the URL, and then fire the popstate event.

fast/loader/stateobjects/document-destroyed-navigate-back.html seems to assert
this "incorrect" behavior.

I think this bug results from having HistoryItem objects store a pointer to a
Document.  Instead, I think they should probably have a "group id" or a
"document id" that can be used to know that they are all associated with the
same document even if the actual Document object changes.
