Subject: [PATCH] Remove incorrect customized built-in element checks

createElement/createElementNS disallowed upgrading of customized
built-in elements, incorrectly. Instead we should allow { is } to be
supplied and even if there is no corresponding definition now, it will
be upgraded later.

Fixes https://github.com/w3c/webcomponents/issues/608.
