[webrtc-pc] Overloaded operations disallowed across partial interfaces in WebIDL (#2289)

dontcallmedom has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/webrtc-pc:

== Overloaded operations disallowed across partial interfaces in WebIDL ==
[WebIDL disallows defining overloaded operations across partial interfaces](https://heycam.github.io/webidl/#idl-overloading):
> Operations must not be overloaded across interface, partial interface, interface mixin, and partial interface mixin definitions.

(this has been disallowed [for a very long time](https://github.com/heycam/webidl/commit/bae069cc35773c1d2ed0efdc1829cd7fa924a5b4))

This means our approach in splitting the legacy versions of the operations in a partial interface is invalid from a WebIDL perspective.

(this emerged as part of looking at a ReSpec upgrade for #2282 - see also https://github.com/w3c/respec/issues/2495)
