[w3c/manifest] Icon purpose "splashscreen" and splashscreen text (#844)

Chromium already has splashscreen generated based on Web Manifest icons. Even though it's great to have, it's not ideal. App's icon, especially one with purpose "maskable", isn't always the best thing to put onto splashscreen. 

It can kinda be "hacked" to show either maskable or normal icon on the splashscreen, but it isn't really enough if your brand's icon is of different shape. It would be great to introduce purpose: "splashscreen" for Web Manifest icons.

Also, having an option to not draw app's name text on the spashscreen would be great too.

PS. I totally get that it's Chrome's only feature, but it's based on the Web Manifest, so I guess it makes sense to discuss here.
