Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-shadow-parts] IDL for attributes

@rniwa defining a new object, such as `DOMTokenMap` is a lot of effort. It's taken us years to get `DOMTokenList` (actually a set) in a somewhat reasonable state.

So typically we don't start out with those, as they require quite a lot of work. We do start out with simple IDL attributes, even if they only reflect as a string, because they are a convenient feature detection mechanism (and also a slight convenience when using the feature).

It would seem inconsistent not to have that here. And note that even those attributes for which we have a complex object, they have a simple IDL attribute too.

In any event, if feature detection can be done in some other not too complex way I guess not doing anything at all for now in terms of IDL attributes might be okay for Mozilla, but it seems better to match precedent.
