Follow up to #324
In chrome, Images without a defined width and height default to 300x150 (width x height).
(https://css-tricks.com/scale-svg/)
(https://connect.microsoft.com/IE/feedbackdetail/view/925655/svg-image-has-0x0-size-in-ie11)
Proposed workaround (and it is truly not ideal as is with most workarounds):
Load the source as text and attempt to parse it as an SVG. If the parsing succeeds, use the aspect ratio from the viewBox to scale the SVG within the 300x150 boundary. The height is the limiting axis in this case so we can use the aspect ratio to scale the width.
If the parsing fails, assume the image is not an SVG and assign it a size of 300x150 by default.
