Do not update/delete: Notification broadcast message test data

Rodrigo Muino Tomonari requested to merge github/fork/MarkTiedemann/expose-whatwg-text-encoder-decoder into master May 10, 2018

This PR makes util.TextEncoder and util.TextDecoder available on the global object.

Currently, this is work-in-progress, but I am looking for feedback.
