US English or UK English in documentation

[Yoshifumi Inoue]

Inspired by automatic spelling effort by Chrome Ops.

There are 5 occurrences of "initialisation"[1] in third_party/WebKit vs. 2,900 occurrences of "initialization"[2]

187 occurrences of "colour"[3].

Maybe more usage of UK English words there.

Should we replace UK spelling word to US spelling word?

Which spelling do we prefer Blink documentation?

AFAIK we should be using US English, as Google does generally.

(Being Canadian, I prefer a lot of the UK spellings, but it's not up to me.)
