[webkit-dev] Implement Geometry Interfaces

[Eric Seidel]

I should clarify that although Blink is very interested in
implementing more of the DOM in JS, we haven't actually shipped any of
that yet:
https://docs.google.com/a/google.com/document/d/13cT9Klgvt_ciAR3ONGvzKvw6fz9-f6E0FrqYFqfoc8Y/edit#

We have to prove that it works (and can be made safe) first. :)
