Re: [manifest] Integration with service workers (#161)

I can't agree with most of @benfrancis's logic; evernote has created their own tortured world and they have lots of ways out -- they don't need the manifest to do it for them.

That said, I'm OK with punting on integration for now and leaning on the implicit connection between the document being loaded from `start_url` and a controlling SW.

UAs will have to implement a rule that says that if there *isn't* a SW for `start_url`, then it isn't really an app. That doesn't feel particularly onerous, though, and shouldn't bite too many site authors. They will clearly have meant for these things to overlap.

It further allows us to define a different semantic for a manifest-specified SW later (should it be needed).
