Re: [w3c/gamepad] Added a supplemental "Extensions" spec (#32)

The children Gamepad enumeration could be added in a later spec revision; however, this may have an influence on the GamepadHand enumeration.  Perhaps GamepadHand could be renamed in a manner that reflects the relationship of the Gamepad with it's parent.  With no parent, it could be simply identifying the "left" or "right" hand.  With a parent, it could identify the particular joint "finger", "elbow", etc..

I propose that we rename "GamepadHand" and "Gamepad.hand" to something without "Hand" in their names.  Perhaps "GamepadRelation" and "Gamepad.path"?

Finally, by associating the Gamepad with the VR Display's DisplayID, we could map OSVR's contept of a path tree to WebVR:
