[Bug 1189] Icedtea-plugin requires code attribute when using jnlp_href

--- Comment #1 from Saad Mohammad <smohammad at redhat.com> ---
Google Chrome does not launch applets that do not have a code attribute
defined. This is rather unfortunate as the main-class name can be found within
the jnlp file, if jnlp_href is used.

As for Firefox, however, there is no dependency on the code attribute to
continue launching the applet. Just like the proprietary plugin, we should also
avoid the dependency of the code attribute if the information can be found
elsewhere. In cases where the jnlp file is missing the main-class attribute, it
will lead to a ParseException resembling similar behaviour of the proprietary
plugin since it's a requirement in a jnlp applet file.
