           Summary: [imports]: improve description of async to clarify
                    execution order

The spec should make it more clear that imports marked with async will not
delay execution (of scripts, stylesheets, or custom element upgrades) due to
any other async imports.

<link rel="import" href="a.html" async>
<link rel="import" href="b.html">
<link rel="import" href="c.html">
<link rel="import" href="d.html" async>

The only guarantee in the above setup is that 'b.html' is executed before
'c.html'. The async imports 'a.html' and 'd.html' may execute in any order with
respect to each other and other non-async imports.
