Revive @@iterator for PluginArray/MimeTypeArray #6368
Conversation
@@iterator is [implicitly defined by indexed property getters](https://heycam.github.io/webidl/#ref-for-dfn-indexed-property-getter%E2%91%A6). Since there is no other way to define it exclusively, this restores some methods back to getters.

It's probably simplest to merge this to get us back to "no behavior changes for Firefox" and "minimal compat risk for Chrome". Even if we leave it in forever it's not a big deal; the gain from removing this is much less than the gain from removing |

Note that this change is especially strange since instances of Plugin cannot be instantiated. So this really only is detectable via Symbol.iterator in Plugin.prototype.

I do hope we can remove Plugin and MimeType, seems likely given iOS.
I think I'm ok trying to remove |
