Description
The VML image shape is currently an HTML element within a <v:group> element. This causes the image to function differently than expected. A VML surface seems to clip shapes exceeding the boundaries automatically; however, when HTML is introduced, it seems to turn clipping off. This can be viewed here: http://aaron.schoolinsummertime.com/gfxVML/VML.html. Instead of clipping the shape that exceeds the boundaries, it scales the VML surface to fit the new shape. As a result, any existing shapes are also scaled, which makes the image appear smaller.
This patch makes the dojo.gfx Image an acutal <v:image> object, which seems to fix all of the problems discussed above. A test/example can be viewed here: http://aaron.schoolinsummertime.com/gfxVML/imageTest.html.

Rejected for now due to performance issues. I'll experiment with clip() to implement require functionality.
