document.fragmentDirective

DOM

This change moves window.location.fragmentDirective to document.fragmentDirective which seems like a more appropriate and safer place. It is a small change to the text-fragments feature in https://chromestatus.com/feature/4733392803332096. Text-fragments introduced an empty object at window.location.fragmentDirective as a means to feature detect the newly added text-fragment capability. window.location turns out to be a bad place for this functionality, see https://crbug.com/1057795.
