Description Domenic Denicola 2020-04-20 13:00:31 PDT

In https://github.com/heycam/webidl/pull/870 we renamed many legacy Web IDL extended attributes to make their usage more clear:

* [NamedConstructor] -> [LegacyFactoryFunction]
* [LenientSetter] -> [LegacyLenientSetter]
* [LenientThis] -> [LegacyLenientThis]
* [NoInterfaceObject] -> [LegacyNoInterfaceObject]
* [TreatNullAs=EmptyString] -> [LegacyNullToEmptyString]
* [OverrideBuiltins] -> [LegacyOverrideBuiltins]
* [TreatNonObjectAsNull] -> [LegacyTreatNonObjectAsNull]
* [Unforgeable] -> [LegacyUnforgeable]

This bug is a FYI in case you want to update your .idl files and bindings implementation to align with the spec-side renames. Doing so should not change the generated code at all.
