Re: [w3c/IndexedDB] Expiry of databases (#205)

This is hot! With `expirationTime ` unused or unnecessary databases would be removed, which is now impossible. Maybe with an absoulute time value such as `expirationDate` range of possibilities would be more rewarding. It would be still possible to make it relevant (for example: set expiration to 30 days later). Cookies have something similar.

`indexedDB.open(name, { version, expirationDate });`

Another solution for this "resource" management would be getting list of all databases names, then deleted the unnecessary ones. However expiration of a database is still better option.

When expiration is set, it should be renewed with any next database opening.
