Re: [w3c/manifest] Abstracting selecting an icon. (#710)

I'm not thrilled that we are using the document format for APIs. I think we should spin off an new `ImageResource` spec that we can use for APIs independently on the manifest spec (we can then build on the stuff in the Notifications API and in the Credential Management API, and in the Payment Handler spec... with the aim of them hopefully using `ImageResource` if possible, as well as the appropriate security model for these `ImageResource`s as defined in Credential Management spec). The `ImageResource` as currently specified is not really suitable for reuse in other specs, because it has `purpose` and `platform` members. 

I think we should seriously consider reverting all the WebIDL changes in the spec, as I think we made a mistake in using WebIDL to define a document format :(
