Drop object[typemustmatch]/typeMustMatch IDL attr (#9671)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This change deletes “typeMustMatch” from api/HTMLObjectElement.json
and deletes “typemustmatch” from html/elements/object.json.

The history of typeMustMatch/typemustmatch is that it was added to the
spec in 2011 in whatwg/html@4030e71 but never
got implemented across browsers and never got adopted by web developers.
So whatwg/html#4590 dropped it from the spec in
2019, and it's now just a footnote in the “Non-conforming features” section
at https://html.spec.whatwg.org/obsolete.html#attr-object-typemustmatch

So there's statistically near-zero content on the web that’s using
typeMustMatch/typemustmatch, and there’s no value to continue
tracking support data for it in BCD.
