Tracking bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1188062

APIs to be removed: Request.context

This was shipped in Firefox 39, but this attribute is fairly useless
without service workers since it can only be read from Request objects and
its value will always be "fetch" for manually created Request objects.

It has become clear that the meaning of this attribute needs to change in
the fetch spec, so I think it is best for us to unship this attribute for
now, and expose it again once the spec has settled.

The web compat effect should be minimal if existent, as we have never
exposed any useful values from this attribute, and no other UAs ship it.

I'm planning to unship this in Firefox 42.

Cheers,
