Re: [tvcontrol-api] 1st radio-api

A few more comments on these changes:

Is application data only available for channels being presented, or 
can the data from any channel be accessed? I'm wondering whether the 
application data should be more closely related to the `TVMediaStream`
 rather than the `TVChannel` interface.

Is the application data expected to be aligned temporally with the 
audio/video media? If so, we could look at using 
[TextTrackCue](https://w3c.github.io/html/single-page.html#texttrackcue-texttrackcue),
 as `TVMediaStream` has support for text tracks. Maybe we could use 
[DataCue](https://w3c.github.io/html/single-page.html#datacue-datacue)
 to support application-specific data types.

I'm also worried that introducing an `Application` (or 
`TVApplication`) interface might be confusing, as elsewhere in the 
spec we use "application" to mean Web applications that use the TV 
Control API.

Having said this, I think we should merge this PR (together with 
Francois' changes) and raise separate issues for these questions.
