I'm not convinced we need the DataConnection object.  Anything you can 
do to one could be a method on PeerConnection.

It makes it a little clearer if you want to drop all DataChannels.
It gives you a convenient API/handle for finding out and keying off the 
state of the DataConnection/SCTP association (if it matters).
It might be useful in some other context than PeerConnection.
