Set.prototype.entries: indices as keys?

[Axel Rauschmayer]

Currently the keys of the entries returned by `Set.prototype.entries()` are the same as the values:

```js
let set = new Set(['a', 'b']);

let pairs = [...set.entries()];
console.log(JSON.stringify(pairs)); // [["a","a"],["b","b”]]
```

Given that sets are ordered, I’d use the “position” of an entry as the key: [[0,"a"],[1,"b”]]

Rationale: First, having an indices as keys makes the entries more useful. Second, destructuring already treats entries as if they had indices:

```js
let [x,y] = set; // x='a'; y='b’;
```
