Thanks for doing this, Jer!

A few issues about your proposal:

* In the AudioBuffer constructor, I believe you want to accept a sequence,
not an array.
* I think you want to convert AudioBuffer.channels to be a sequence as well.
* Should AudioProcessingEvent.outputBuffer be nullable?  I don't think that
it makes sense to require the implementation to allocate an object (even
lazily) if it's going to be overwritten in the typical use case.
* Float32Array is not a regular Web IDL interface <
http://www.khronos.org/registry/typedarray/specs/latest/#7> so you cannot
extend it with the partial interface syntax (AFAIK).
