I realized the other day that the question also applies to what should
db.objectStoreNames return? It makes sense that whatever changes we
make to .version we'd also make to .objectStoreNames. Do we revert it
to the value it had before the transaction was started? Do we throw?
Do we return null/0?

Ultimately I feel like there really is very little reason for someone
to use these properties if the VERSION_CHANGE transaction fails, and
so I'm leaning more towards that we should do whatever is easy to
implement.

So what I suggest is that we do the same thing as for .close(). I.e.
we leave the values untouched. This seems not only easy to implement
but also is consistent with .close().
