Research direction

Start at the ImageDownloader constructor and HtmlContainerInt.SetHtml entry point, then inspect where WebClient is referenced in the Windows Universal path. Reproduce SetHtml on Windows Universal and verify that it no longer throws the reported TypeLoadException and that the relevant references use WebRequest.
