eventSender.dragMode needs a better name

From correspondence with Alexey:

Eric: Is dragMode/replayEvents needed for all drags which start inside a WebView?  On all platforms?  Or only on drags which start inside a WebView and are dragged outside of the WebView? (if that's even possible in DRT...)

Alexey: When introduced in r17574, replayEvents was used to test HTML drags (within a WebView, possibly across frames). I do not know whether we have any tests for dragging out of WebView - if we do, they'd have to use this or another similar mechanism. No idea about other platforms - it should be easy to check what EventSenderController does there.


I still don't really understand what cases do and don't want dragMode.  But we need to document those, and make the toggle have a nice name to reflect what it does.
