/**
* imgIDecoderObserver interface
*
* This interface is used both for observing imgIDecoder objects and for
* observing imgIRequest objects. In the former case, aRequest is
* always null.
*
* We make the distinction here between "load" and "decode" notifications. Load
* notifications are fired as the image is loaded from the network or
* filesystem. Decode notifications are fired as the image is decoded. If an
* image is decoded on load and not visibly discarded, decode notifications are
* nested logically inside load notifications as one might expect. However, with
* decode-on-draw, the set of decode notifications can come completely _after_
* the load notifications, and can come multiple times if the image is
* discardable. Moreover, they can be interleaved in various ways. In general,
* any presumed ordering between load and decode notifications should not be
* relied upon.
*
* Decode notifications may or may not be synchronous, depending on the
* situation. If imgIDecoder::FLAG_SYNC_DECODE is passed to a function that
* triggers a decode, all notifications that can be generated from the currently
* loaded data fire before the call returns. If FLAG_SYNC_DECODE is not passed,
* all, some, or none of the notifications may fire before the call returns.
*
* This interface will be cleaned up in bug 505385.
