Re: [whatwg/storage] Permissions API reflection for Persistent Permission (#14)

I don't see it as likely that Firefox would implement the `StorageManager.persistentPermission()` function since that functionality is better provided through the permission API instead.

We should not let editorial issues affect what API we use.

Ultimately what needs to be defined is what string should be passed to the permission API in order to check permission to use persistent storage. At least until we've gotten the various specs into the needed state to define this formally. I propose using `"persistent-storage"`, but I don't actually care at all what the string is.

For me it would be quite enough to for now remove the `StorageManager.persistentPermission()` function and leave an informal note indicating that we expect to leverage the permission API and which string we expect to use.
