Re: [svgwg] Clarify Event attributes section (#467)

I would interpret "For every event type that the user agent supports" to mean, for any event type that the user agent can emit events for.  But that is very broad, and would include event types that are specific to certain elements (e.g., audio, video) & not applicable to SVG.

So, I agree that a simpler solution could be to define the markup attributes by reference to the DOM event handler attributes.  We already [use mixins on `SVGElement`](https://svgwg.org/svg2-draft/types.html#InterfaceSVGElement) to keep that list of DOM event handlers up to date with core DOM & HTML.

We should also probably tidy up the rest of the section to avoid duplicating or contradicting the referenced section in HTML.
