ACTION-295: SBM, BrowserLockDown

I've updated the editor's draft to cover some of our recent
discussion on usage modes, including Safe Browsing Mode.  This
material is now in a separate chapter.

For the record, I will propose to remove at least two of the
requirements that are currently covered by Safe Browsing Mode;
specifically, I would like to see some discussion about the
"visually distinct" requirement, and about the whitelist-like part.
I will open issues for both of these questions.

Dan, Tim, in bringing this in, I've tried to phraes it all in terms
of the optional requirements of this specification (the
whitelist-like part being the outlier with respect to that); I've
dropped things that are covered elsewhere, and have rephrased safe
browsing mode in terms of tying up some MAYs elsewhere in the spec.

Let me know whether you believe any core aspects are missing at this
point.

Thanks,
