Support WebXR API (to eventually deprecate WebVR v1.1)

See original GitHub issue

The WebXR API is the successor to WebVR API (v1.1). There is a new Chrome Origin Trial, WebXR.

You can test WebXR on Chrome M67+ (with the WebXR and Gamepad Extensions flags enabled from chrome://flags). Tentative timeline for Chrome: September 2018. Other browser vendors: TBD.

There are still a few bugs, but all the examples should be able to Enter/Exit XR now. https://rawgit.com/mrdoob/three.js/dev/examples/?q=webvr

WebVR support has been removed #18129. WebXR is now available with latest Chrome (without flags or origin trials token) and supported via WebXRManager.
