Re: [heycam/webidl] WIP: add localizable dictionary (#358)

+A user agent is expected to honor the Unicode semantics of [=localizable members=].
+
+The [=identifier=] of a [=localizable member=] is left to the defining specification (e.g., "title").
+
+Dictionaries that specify a [=localizable member=] must inherit from the {{Localizable}} dictionary.
+
+Specification authors must specify in prose which [=dictionary members|member(s)=]
+of the inheriting dictionary serve as [=localizable members=].
+
+Specification authors should limit the number of [=localizable members=] to one per dictionary,
+including in [=inherited dictionaries=] (if any).

This is what Payment Request would look like if using `LocalizableString` (😍):

Also, `LocalizableString` means we can get rid of the "should" restriction, because now all localizable members now carry around their own `lang`, `dir`, and `value` 🎉.
