Images fails to load the second time on web when compiled to wasm

[OutdatedGuy]

🐛 Bug Report

When compiled to wasm, images don't load the second time if navigated back and forth again, giving the below error:

ImageCodecException: Failed to decode image using the browser's ImageDecoder API.
Image source: https://docs.flutter.dev/assets/images/dash/dash-fainting.gif
Original browser error: JavaScriptError

But, if you provide the errorListener param some value, this error mysteriously fixes.

Expected behavior

Images should load every time without giving any errors even if errorListener is not provided.

Reproduction steps

1. Copy below sample code into lib/main.dart
2. Run on web with wasm using the below command:

   flutter run -d chrome --wasm
   

3. Click on Open Page 1 button and wait for the image to load
4. Click back and wait 5 seconds
5. Once again click Open Page 1 button
6. See image loading error
7. Now uncomment the errorListener line in sample code
8. Enter r in terminal to hot restart
9. Repeat steps 3-5
10. See the error is fixed magically

[putnokiabel]

Same issue here. Thanks for suggesting the "magic" errorListener workaround, great to have this as a temporary fix!

errorListener workaround not work at first time install serviceWorker.

is imageRenderMethodForWeb: ImageRenderMethodForWeb.HttpGet work?
