Re: [w3c/IndexedDB] API to enumerate databases (#31)

Promises weren't around when IDB1 was done.
Promises are the future, and this API is currently in the future.

Developers have never had this API before, so introducing it will result in all new code, so there can be no previous assumption that it ever worked like an IDBRequest.

Additionally, IDBRequests are about just that - Indexed Database Requests. Their entire construction is based around a query to a unique instance of an Indexed Database, whereas this call is about querying the state of all indexed databases.

IDBRequest doesn't fit.
