As pointed out to me by Blink's Christian Biesinger, the URL decoding in the srcset algorithm can break encoded URLs (both in src and in srcset)

Since the new parser is in place (which splits the attribute on white spaces rather than commas), data URIs are handled properly, and decoding URLs doesn't really offer any benefits. Therefore, I removed decoding to avoid breaking these URLs.
