/**
* Will wait for an iframe to be ready
* for DOM manipulation. Just listening for
* the load event will only work if the iframe
* is not already loaded. If so, it is necessary
* to observe the readyState. The issue here is
* that Chrome will initialize iframes with
* "about:blank" and set its readyState to complete.
* So it is furthermore necessary to check if it's
* the readyState of the target document property.
* Errors that may occur when trying to access the iframe
* (Same-Origin-Policy) will be catched and the error
* function will be called.
* https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17158932/how-to-detect-when-an-iframe-has-already-been-loaded
*
* @param {jquery} $i - The jQuery iframe element
* @param {function} successFn - The callback on success. Will
* receive the jQuery contents of the iframe as a parameter
* @param {function} errorFn - The callback on error
