Web Inspector: InspectorDOMStorageAgent creates a Storage object which is a DOMWindowProperty - Should use the StorageArea directly

DOMWindowProperties are a mechanism for registering with the DOMWindow which has one specific lifetime.

WebInspector resources have a completely distinct lifetime, and should not be instantiating DOMWindowProperties.

It seems that there is no reason the Inspector resource couldn't use the StorageArea directly.

This was discovered while fixing https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34679 and is currently blocking it.
