W3C's version of XMLHttpRequest should be abandoned

According to Art
https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/xhr/raw-file/default/Overview.html is no longer
maintained. It should redirect to https://xhr.spec.whatwg.org/
therefore.

According to Art the plan of record is to still pursue
https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/xhr/raw-file/default/xhr-1/Overview.html but
that was last updated more than a year ago. Last "formally" published
a year and a half ago. That causes significant confusion. More
importantly, implementations are implementing the new features in
https://xhr.spec.whatwg.org/ so nobody has much use for a "Level 1".
Especially one that is not layered on top of Fetch and therefore
doesn't even work with service workers.
