Asset objectURL memory leak (on import) #28

Description

@evktalo

Loaded assets (images/audio) are not released/revoked when importing a new project. This can be easily reproduced by importing large projects multiple times in a single tab and observing the memory usage.

Right now it's not a big (or even noticeable) issue unless the user imports huge projects multiple times within a session.

This can most likely be fixed by revoking each existing objectURL (with window.URL.revokeObjectURL) when importing a project (since they wont be accessible in the UI anymore). It would be nice if all objectURLs in the window object could be revoked with a single call but we couldn't determine if it's supported.
