Re: [whatwg/storage] Add API to allow origin to purge all storage (#4)

@inexorabletash okay, so we give box an associated state which is either "open" or "closed". When you invoke clear() it asynchronously marks the origin's box as closed and then replaces it with a new open box (whose mode is the same). It also invokes the "box close steps" which other specifications can hook into.

We should probably enumerate the other specifications since it will be observable in what order the box close steps run for each of them. So maybe each specification defines some cleanup steps that I reference from here.

And I also make sure that not just clear() can invoke these steps, but the header can too. Might be easier for that header to simply live in HTML though since I assume we only want it for navigations?
