Provide an abstract operation for the latter part of OrdinarySet

[Ms2ger]

WebIDL uses

Perform steps 3-11 of the default [[Set]] internal method ([ECMA-262], section 9.1.9).

because it wants to replace the definition of ownDesc. It would be better to have an explicit operation for it to call.

I think it'd be best if Web IDL just copied the appropriate steps, actually. There's no clear factoring here. (Also, that is outdated, as there are only 9 steps in what is now called OrdinarySet.)

IDL should probably also be rewritten for this since it seems the complexity is only warranted for objects supporting indexed properties. Better to isolate those from the ordinary objects.
