This fixes upcoming tests that will check when we actually mutate the attribute.

The wpt changes come from https://github.com/w3c/web-platform-tests/pull/9920
and are needed to keep Element-classlist.html passing.

The change to testing/web-platform/mozilla/tests/dom/classList.html is pulling
those changes into our weird forked version of that test...

James, any idea why the test changes here did not get upstreamed to wpt?

It seems like 5a1c088ef04548f623a2b6704466158eaf300c9f upstream already contains these changes, which was a situation that's badly handled (we error out rather than do something more reasonable like nothing).

Where "these changes" is "some but not all of the changes from this bug", right?
Created web-platform-tests PR https://github.com/w3c/web-platform-tests/pull/10183 for changes under testing/web-platform/tests
I have documented this:

Description of replace return value updated:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/DOMTokenList/replace

Note added to Fx61 rel notes:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Releases/61#DOM

PR for updating the browser compat data:
https://github.com/mdn/browser-compat-data/pull/2124

Let me know if that look OK, thanks!

Chris, the returned value is a boolean value, not a Boolean object.  The documentation all seems to claim a Boolean object is returned, which isn't right.

Other than that, looks good.

Ooops. I've fixed it now, thanks for reporting.
Looks great, thank you!
