        This patch removes WebKit's map of classid values to MIME types. It also
        changes the behavior of object elements to render fallback content when
        a non-empty classid attribute is specified, which is the behavior HTML5
        specifies when a UA encounters a classid it doesn't understand.

        Test: fast/replaced/object-with-non-empty-classid-triggers-fallback.html

        * html/HTMLObjectElement.cpp: Remove serviceTypeForClassId(),
        createClassIdToTypeMap(), and the ClassIdToTypeMap typedef.
        (WebCore::HTMLObjectElement::updateWidget): Do not call
        serviceTypeForClassId() when there is no type attribute, and render
        fallback content if the classid attribute is non-empty.
