"javascript:" urls: execute in correct global scope
<!-- Please describe your changes on the following line: -->
#### Summary
This pull request makes `javascript:` urls execute in the correct global scope.
#### Example
```html
<script> var x = 4; </script>
<!-- this branch: logs "4" -->
<!-- master: undefined variable error -->
<a href="javascript:console.log(x)">link</a>
```
#### Questions
I'm new to servo and rust, so I'm unsure about these changes. In particular:
* What's the appropriate place to evaluate the js?
* I moved it to `handle_navigate`, but I'm not sure if this will catch all occurrences of `javascript:` urls. I also don't know if this will execute in the correct thread and the correct window.
* What should I do with the result of the js evaluation?
* I just ignored it. The previous behavior displayed it as the content of a new page load.
