Re: [touch-events] standardize initTouchEvent (#29)

After doing more research, it seems that MOST of the uses of `initTouchEvent` [we see in httparchive](https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Ve_Fgq-C625O7tmqinRShvSAZ8jkyrL-sV-rZWP3yyk) actually wouldn't work on Safari or Chrome (because Safari requires all 18 arguments to be supplied (despite their documentation saying otherwise) - perhaps a breaking change at some point that nobody noticed).  We're now [considering removing](https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/forum/#!topic/blink-dev/ktY_calb4QU) our (incompatible) `initTouchEvent` method from blink entirely.  If we decide to do that, then I propose we undo the change to add it to the spec.
