Remove or standardize Window#screenLeft/screenTop

Project Member Reported by lunalu@chromium.org, Feb 23 2017 
Neither Gecko or WebKit has these APIs. Should we remove them?

It looks to me like they're in all engines except Gecko.

Use counters are here:

If spec'd they should go here:

As implemented, they're just aliases of screenX/screenY.

Given that these are in a majority of engines and are used on 15% of pages [1][2] we can't really remove these any time soon.
