[presentation-api] Availability URLs versus Presentation URLs

mfoltzgoogle has just created a new issue for 
https://github.com/w3c/presentation-api:

== Availability URLs versus Presentation URLs ==
@avayvod pointed out that the spec is written in terms of two types of
 URLs: "availability" URLs are used to determine the set of compatible
 presentation displays [1], while "presentation" URLs are used to 
actually initiate presentation [2].  However with the introduction of 
`PresentationRequest` [3] these URLs must be identical for any given 
request.

Personally, I feel the algorithms for display availability and session
 initiation read better as-is, and it is a bit confusing to use 
"presentation" URLs even if there is no presentation running.

Maybe we could call them "presentation request URLs" everywhere?
