Re: [w3c/manifest] Clarify behaviour of a page linking to a manifest that is not within scope of that manifest (#784)

Discussed on the call with @marcoscaceres .

The mechanism described in #834 ("scope-dependent members") would do nicely here. The idea would be that if you try to install a manifest whose scope is on another origin to your document, we invalidate `start_url`, `scope` and all scope-dependent members (hence you could still use icons and other metadata, but not install it). But if it's on the same origin, we don't invalidate anything --- we let you install a manifest that does not enclose this document's scope, as long as its `start_url` is within its `scope`.
