Re: [w3c/webcomponents] Considering Shader Module Types (#853)

That doesn't look like a compelling improvement to me over js modules, and moving boilerplate into each shader module is a step backwards for conciseness.

Also unfortunate: WebGLShaders are not only specific to a WebGLContext, but compilation depends on mutable WebGLContext state as well. Compilation is unfortunately not (presently) idempotent. 

NB: WebGPU will be giving us yet another shader type, coincidentally called `GPUShaderModule`.
