Dictionary types need special treatment in a lint rule verifying that realms are used correctly. This requires knowing which types are dictionaries vs. interfaces. This was previously hard-coded, which is a maintenance burden. Improve this by pulling in the webidl2.js library and using it to parse (and validate!) the spec's WebIDL, which gives us a list of dictionary types.
