Summary
mouse/pointer event target is `<img>` rather than `<area>` on image map

When you over mouse cursor over a shape of an `<area>` on an image map, Safari targets the `<img>` for mouse/pointer events. However, the other browsers target the corresponding `<area>`. There is no definition in any standards about this case so that I filed a spec issue:
https://github.com/w3c/uievents/issues/404
And I added WPTs about this and when the image map definition is changed while the mouse cursor is over the image map: *
https://wpt.fyi/results/uievents/mouse/mouse_boundary_events_on_image_map.html?label=experimental&label=master&aligned
*
https://wpt.fyi/results/pointerevents/pointerevent_boundary_events_on_image_map.html?label=experimental&label=master&aligned
This may be a dup of
bug 15035
