Re: [whatwg/dom] "In a document" confusion (#238)

Yeah, I did not have a strong opinion, but I am feeling that we could get benefits if we could have a shorter, intuitive, terminologies.

Basically, I like using *connected* as a replacement of *shadow-including*. Thus, the proposal from me:

To represet a status:
- *is connected to a document*   (As a replacement of *in a shadow-including document*)
- A and B *are connected to the same document*  (As a replacement of "in the same shadow-including document" in https://github.com/whatwg/dom/pull/273)

To represent a change of state:
- *get connected to a document* (As a replacement of  *is connected*)
- *get disconnected from a document* (As a replacement of *is disconnected*)

I also like using 'in a document tree' to avoid confusion of 'in a document'.
- *in a document tree* (as a replacement of a *in a document*)
- *in a shadow tree*
