[ServiceWorker] What's proper SW name? :) (#705)

OK, guys - we need to settle, what's the proper name of SW
Is it:
1) Service Workers
2) ServiceWorkers
3) Service Worker
4) ServiceWorker


Various examples of usage from the web :)
1) Service Workers
@jeffposnick - http://updates.html5rocks.com/2015/02/offline-first-with-sw-precache

2) ServiceWorkers
@jakearchibald - http://jakearchibald.com/2014/using-serviceworker-today/

3) Service Worker
https://notifications.spec.whatwg.org/#service-worker-api

4) ServiceWorker
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/ServiceWorker_API (in title, in text it's 'service worker' so technically it's the fifth one)

Combos:
@slightlyoff  - Name of this repo is "ServiceWorker", at the end of the URL https://slightlyoff.github.io/ServiceWorker/spec/service_worker/ is "service_worker" and in  title h1 there's Service Workers

Some problems that this small issue introduces: 
- SW is now included in Platinum Elements in Polymer. Let's see what tags are there: "serviceworker" and "service-worker". On Stack Overflow? [service-worker]
- It'd be nice to measure people interest in this topic after ex. Google I/O - but what phrase should we use?

Additionaly, it actually means something ([The service workers strike](http://ubyssey.ca/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/wpid-20121004_kai-jacobson-2.jpg)), so we should be extra-careful.

It's the last moment, when we still can control it somehow (until hundreds of blogs will write some article about SW, using different names) - so let's do it :)
