RIM PR: 160585

way to reproduce:
try to load an digest http authenticated page which has a subresource, e.g. an img tag pointing to a png file which needs the same authentication. the auth challenge dialog would pop up twice, even you've entered the right credentials for the main resource.

root cause:
we load store the credentials in handleNotifyDone, after finish loading the whole main resource, which is too late. We should do it as soon as we receives the headers which indicate that we've passed the authentication. Then we can find the credential information from CredentialStorage when loading subresource.
