ECMA-402 v1 legacy constructor semantics compromise for NumberFormat
This patch addresses #57 by allowing certain legacy constructor patterns to coexist with the new guarantees in ECMA-402 v2, which allows for a pattern where all internal slots exist from the beginning of the object's lifetime. The compromise is based on storing a "real" object inside of a symbol-named property to allow for object initialization in cases of the Intl.<constructor>.call(Object.create(Intl.<constructor>) pattern. Legacy methods have to forward their calls to this "real" object. This patch specifies the change for Intl.NumberFormat, and a follow-on patch makes the same change for Intl.DateTimeFormat. This patch, together with changes for Intl.DateTimeFormat, has been demonstrated to fix old versions of Intl.js on a deployed website. A sample implementation in V8 can be found at https://codereview.chromium.org/1828543007
