Re: [deviceorientation] Reach consensus on deprecation and removal of de facto standard init*Event() methods

We have these use counters:
https://www.chromestatus.com/metrics/feature/timeline/popularity/865
https://www.chromestatus.com/metrics/feature/timeline/popularity/866

However, despite the fact that I closed https://github.com/w3c/deviceorientation/issues/18 I would be perfectly happy to see these standardized, and don't think we can possibly remove *all* of the `init*Event()` methods, because:
https://www.chromestatus.com/metrics/feature/timeline/popularity/867

I would, however, like to give them all exactly one required argument as in https://github.com/whatwg/dom/issues/387

For those that aren't interoperable yet, it's very possible that removing them from *n* engines could be a faster path to interop than adding them to *4-n*, depending on the numbers and usage.
