Re: [whatwg/dom] createEvent("textevent") creates a TextEvent (PR #1254)

The `textInput` event is required for web compat when typing, pasting, dropping, and maybe some other actions, in an editable field (`input` or `textarea` or `contenteditable`). The event uses the `TextEvent` interface in Chromium and WebKit. Supporting that interface and the change in this PR is also required for web compat because some sites use it for feature-checking support for the `textInput` event. Example: https://github.com/cespare/pastedown/blob/9211a49c848d037b01fd42c26891f4b83a19a56d/public/pastedown.js#L51
