Re: [ServiceWorker] Navigating clients from the SW context? (#681)

Another use-case for this: Say a site ships a broken ServiceWorker. It fixes it. The new version should be able to `skipWaiting`, `clients.claim()` and reload all the clients.

I'll spec `windowClient.navigate(url)`, where `url` defaults to the current url, so `windowClient.navigate()` reloads.

`url` is relative to the SW.

If `url` only differs in fragment, or does not differ at all, the page will still reload. Therefore calling `.navigate` will always cause a fetch of the url.
