Re: [whatwg/fullscreen] Allow fullscreen on initial load of a page (#36)

I discussed with @annevk on IRC today about the usecase here, and we agree that it seems reasonable to add a `fullscreen` attribute to `<a>` and/or add a `fullscreen` parameter to `window.open`, so that the new page is open in fullscreen directly.

This is a bit different from the proposal here, though, that they would make fullscreen request for the new page directly, rather than relying on the new page itself to request fullscreen. This can avoid depends on timing of server's responsing.

@annevk pointed out that the difficulty here would be that, requesting fullscreen without an element is a new primitive, which needs some more thinking and discussion.
