[Bug 12844] Remove the label attribute from subclasses of HTMLElement

http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=12844

.label doesn't mean a different thing on HTMLElement and HTMLLabelElement. It
means the same thing: it's the label of the command as used in a menu.

Renaming the attributes makes no sense given the command API.

I'm fine with changing how this is specced, though. It's quite possible that
the current mechanism doesn't make much sense. The main reason I did this using
shadowing is that there doesn't seem to be a good way to make an attribute
readonly on most elements but not all.
