Re: [heycam/webidl] The [SecureContext] text is unclear on exposure for interfaces (#119)

http://heycam.github.io/webidl/#SecureContext says:

So if the non-partial interface is [SecureContext], then so are all its partial interfaces, whether they claim to be [SecureContext] or not.  We could make this explicit, sure, by making it a parse failure if an interface is annotated [SecureContext] but one of its partial interfaces is not...
