Re: [ServiceWorker] Make ExtendableEvent#waitUntil generic (#554)

Thanks @jungkees ! One nit: "infinite loops and similar defective code" is quite specific, and doesn't seem to cover the case where the Service Worker JS is deliberately (non-defectively) performing a long sequence of asynchronous tasks, e.g. video encoding or bitcoin mining, where the work has been split into small asynchronous chunks. Especially on mobile, UAs cannot guarantee that the SW will stay alive for very long, and hence they may wish to impose execution time limits in this case also.
