WHATWG cherry-pick

Hi all,

I've just updated the master branch (5.1) with the latest changes from 
the feature/whatwg branch to get us up-to-date to WHATWG@8473.

Normative changes:

[giow] (1) Update the spec to say what's exposed to workers: take 1
Fixing https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=22646

[ct] (3) Make </caption> optional, since that seems to be interoperably 
supported already anyway

the 'load' event.
Fixing https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=24353

is taken from a document, but also when it's taken from a subtree. which 
makes sense.
