PositionOptions Web Platform Test exhibits incorrect behavior

Project Member Reported by cco3@chromium.org, Jul 17 2017

Issue description

https://github.com/w3c/web-platform-tests/blob/master/geolocation-API/PositionOptions.https.html

The geolocation api spec says that permission should be checked before performing getCurrentPosition() or watchPosition().
https://dev.w3.org/geo/api/spec-source.html#geolocation_interface

This implies that rather than a TIMEOUT error, we should be getting a PERMISSION_DENIED error.

Chrome currently fails the test with PERMISSION_DENIED, but in other configurations (e.g., if no prior call is made to the two methods before giving a non-positive deadline), we would instead return a TIMEOUT.
