Intent to Ship: Optional catch binding

Spec:
https://tc39.github.io/proposal-optional-catch-binding/

Summary:
This proposal allows developers to use try/catch without creating an unused binding.

Interoperability and Compatibility Risk:
This is a stage3 feature. Previously not having a binding was an error, so there's no compat risk.

Firefox 58 Beta and Safari Tech Preview 37 ship this feature. Edge has not implemented this yet.

V8 tests as well as test262 tests pass.

Tracking bug:
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/v8/issues/detail?id=6889

Chromestatus entry:
https://www.chromestatus.com/features/5810795665424384

LGTM!

Note that this is a v8/JavaScript feature, so this is just an FYI for blink-dev at the moment.

I thought V8 wanted to use the blink process nowadays?

There's been discussion of doing that, but nothing official has changed (yet). +hablich, as I believe this is on his plate at the moment.
