Globalization API working draft

[Axel Rauschmayer]

Alternative for polyfills: A loader that maps module names to alternate implementations. This reminds me of dependency injection.

Potential problem: The path of a (non-built-in) library might not always be a good ID (one module loads a minified version, another doesn’t). Maybe we need some kind of optional separate module ID.
