Re: [whatwg/storage] Disable prompting in third parties (#87)

Just to clarify, not being able to *prompt* means that calling `navigator.storage.persist()` would return true if the origin already has persistent storage, and false otherwise?

I'm asking because there's an interpretation where `navigator.storage.persist()` is what does the prompting, and maybe this suggestion is about having the function reject in third-party contexts.

As far as I know, Chrome never prompts for persistent storage. If the first interpretation is the valid one, this would be a no-op for us today.

Looking towards the future, I think we're generally very supportive of not allowing code in third-party frames to show permission prompts.
