Re: [manifest] Add meta tags equivs. for features were possible (#350)

For `lang` it may be worth testing on some web crawl — is `<html lang>` popular enough? Do people use `<body lang>`? I'd limit to reading `lang` attr just from the root for simplicity.

Looking at https://wiki.whatwg.org/wiki/MetaExtensions and https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ie/gg491732%28v=vs.85%29.aspx

* `name` :arrow_right: `application-name` (existing specs and examples don't focus on limiting length of the name). 
* `short_name` :question: Something needs to be defined (in iOS the de-facto short name is `apple-mobile-web-app-title`, but naming scheme doesn't fit the rest).
* `start_url` :arrow_right: In the olden days it was `<link rel=start>`, but there's probably too much legacy content with this. Google tried [`<meta name=application-url>`](https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=40010#c1). MS has `msapplication-starturl`. Perhaps `<link rel=application-start>`? (it should be a `link`).
