Make sure pages for features on WindowOrWorkerGlobalScope describe the correct means of accessing

[jpmedley]

Best described with Philip's quote from #1940. This issue is about making soure the descriptions are clear. It takes no position on the suggestion to put the referenced items under Global_Obects/.

For all of the methods on WindowOrWorkerGlobalScope, I believe invoking them directly as fetch() rather than self.fetch() is idiomatic. They are: atob(), btoa(), clearInterval(), clearTimeout(), createImageBitmap(), fetch(), queueMicrotask(), setInterval(), setTimeout().

For attributes, while they can be accessed directly, I think for at least these it's more idiomatic to access them via the global object, because it makes it clear they're not local variables: self.crossOriginIsolated, self.isSecureContext, self.origin.

Then there's caches and indexedDB, where I suspect there's more variation in style. I'd certainly write indexedDB.open(...), but the example uses window.indexedDB.open('toDoList').

On the URL, another option would be /api/Global_Objects/fetch, more analogous to https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/parseInt

I think that looking at the members of Window and WorkerGlobalScope will reveal more tricky cases. I think especially a method like window.resizeTo(), which it can be invoked as just resizeTo(), would not be great to give the same treatment as fetch().

Here's the start of a list. I do not claim it is complete.

• atob()
• btoa()
• clearInterval()
• clearTimeout()
• createImageBitmap()
• fetch()
• queueMicrotask()
• setInterval()
• setTimeout()
• crossOriginIsolated
• isSecureContext
• origin
• resizeTo

Verified these are invoked consistently directly:-

• atob() - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/atob
• btoa() - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/btoa
• clearInterval() - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/clearInterval
• clearTimeout() - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/clearTimeout
• createImageBitmap() - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/createImageBitmap
• fetch() - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Fetch
• queueMicrotask() - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/queueMicrotask
• setInterval() - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/setInterval
• setTimeout() - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/setTimeout

And these attributes somewhat inconsistently used like this :-

• self.crossOriginIsolated - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/crossOriginIsolated but see the example
• self.isSecureContext - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/isSecureContext
• self.origin - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/origin
• window.resizeTo - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/resizeTo

What changes are required for this issue now?
