Path2D has now landed in Blink [1]. Blink also implemented the 'addPath'
method.
WebKit just landed a patch to rename Path to Path2D, remove currentPath and
add fill/stroke/clip with a path [2].
A patch is under review for Firefox to add Path2D.
Given this, can we change the spec to reflect the new name?
