Goals for v1

For the first version, we aim to standardize the following:

• A link relationship for manifests (so they can be used with <link>).
• A standard file name for a manifest resource (i.e., manifest.json).
• Launch URL.
• Application's name.
• Screen orientation hinting for when launching the app.
• Fullscreen at launch.
• Open in browser vs. open as "standalone".
• For standalone, enabling back-button and other UI (e.g., minimal-ui).
