API Refinements:

• The default global scope when creating a new realm has no extra capabilities, it is confusing, we can remove it.
• The realm object is the real power object, and users can decide to share it or not via endowments.
• In a realm, you can create as many global scopes as you want via realmObj.createNewGlobalScope().
• No more proxy-like API at the realm level, if you want to proxy a global, that should be used when creating a new global scope.

The API proposal:

Notational Conventions

This section describes the conventions used here to describe type signatures.

A [T] is an array-like value (only ever used read-only in this API), i.e., one with an integer length and whose indexed properties from 0 to length - 1 are of type T.

A type T? should be read as T | undefined -- that is, an optional value that may be undefined.
