Allow GamepadDataFetcher to fetch data asynchronously.

Project Member Reported by mthiesse@chromium.org, Mar 21 2017 
It would be nice if the GamepadDataFetcher could fetch controller data asynchronously, or if the GamepadDataFetcher itself was behind a mojo binding so that the controller implementation could live on another thread.

For example, the VR controller isn't threadsafe, and needs to be used by the browser when rendering VR UI, so we have to push data from the VR rendering thread to the browser thread and cache it for when the GamepadDataFetcher requests it.

Brandon, can you comment on whether this would still be useful for WebVR? I think we are developing an alternate API for VR controller input so this may no longer be needed.
