Previously it wasn't clear exactly which parts of the processing model
the vague phrase "abort the script" impacted. This gives us a specific
term that at least outlines the concept, and makes all other places
that are impacted by script abortion reference that term.

Awesome. Will leave unmerged until sometime tomorrow in case any of the other editors want to check it over.

Do we still need to have this line given that this is technically handled in the paragraph above?

LGTM. Perhaps file a bug upstream to figure out if TC39 finds this worthy of some words?

Filed tc39/ecma262#401.

I also messed up this merge a tiny bit by pushing to master before pushing to this branch, so, for posterity the commit is 6a48bfb
