Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-animations-2][web-animation-2] Rename exit range to active range (#13174)

I can relate to @tabatkins' dislike of the naming. Naming these properties was problematic from the start.
The thing is, the "active-range" will probably be less used. It's mostly important for the `play reset` flow, and its behavior is actually "linger on the current state while inside, and trigger this action when exiting". I'm not sure remaining with just the word `active` on that range is a good idea, might be confusing if you don't have @bramus there beside you to explain 😅 
I think if we can solve that name, the rest is a no brainer, but I don't have a good word for that ATM (probably "linger" won't cut it)
